    what are results of tournament and why does about page say june 2009 if it is still may 2009; seeing a time machine would be in order to start “june 2009″ lol ? It does make people wonder about the writing.

    The results are available on the USCF site and I will be adding an entry on the event here soon.

    As to the typo, it happens. You should be sure to heed the old saying, “Those who live in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones.” Everyone makes mistakes.
