I agree with Justin Daniel. By the way, how are you? Glad to see your answer up there! Practicing your brain. I was so sorry and sad about Fischer’s death. His impact on me was strong. I was a kid when Fischer won the title. I followed his rise with happiness and his fall with anger and disbelief.
May his soul rest in peace.

Abie, you write elegantly. I could not have stated it better myself regarding Fischer.
