ICC is just too expensive

I'm letting my account expire there. 70 bucks a year is just too much. I feel sad about it, perhaps I'll register again when my credit card bill is payed down to a reasonable amount in ten years.

I tried playing at Yahoo, what a freaking joke. Bunch of people sitting not playing chess, and the few that are there to play disconnect right when they start to lose. Incredibly annoying. It seems FICS is a happy medium between the overpriced ICC and the utterly worthless Yahoo experience.

I'll be posting a book review in the next week, on Rudel's book Zuke 'Em. I've written the outline and am filling in the details.
