Given that your Canadian, I am sure the irony of your statement will fly so far over your head it would probably would crash into the moon...
What are you on about?
Okay.
Oh no
That was a different, older Clyde Nakamura, I believe
a nice man. i emailed him to ask about some odd openings and he mailed me a file with lots of games.

Hi
RIP Clyde. Great chess mind. https://www.weremember.com/clyde-nakamura/9x4v/memories
He pioneered probably the best English opening gambit: https://www.chess.com/forum/view/chess-openings/ancient-dance---the-kahiko-hula-gambit
Many may not know him since he didn't carry the IM/GM title but he was a super imaginative player of expert strength who invented and pioneered a lot strange but fun gambits. Does anyone know if he still plays chess or anything today ?
