Changes

Grandmaster Lev Alburt, a three-time American champion, said of Fischer: "Fischer was a great natural talent, but no greater talent than other of the game's best players. The difference was he gave 98% of his life to chess. Others, perhaps, gave 30%. So Fisher surpassed them. When, after '72, he became afraid that some accident may cost him his title, he stopped playing. He had nothing else in his mind and no education to guide him. As [[Garry Kasparov]] pointed out, since nature abhors a vacuum, Fischer quickly filled up with the worst ideas.<ref>''Chess Life'', March 2008, page 24</ref>
