MK's father - Erwin Knopfler and Chess article

[dmg]

Am I the only one who remember this information appeared a long ago?

I'd say it was here. Maybe was on Silverton blues forum but I doubt it as I don't go there on often..,

Yes!  I recall info on the chess stuff but none of the personal details.

It's one of the first things that pops up when you're searching for MK's father.

Talking about communism is politics? Oh, come on! The only man who can say that never seen David Knopfler's FB page!

As for Russian this is very interesting to me, especially all this Marxism and communism, I hope Mark will elaborate more on that topic.

In Poland, we also lived a long time with communism. Too long

We know little about Mark's sister

All that I can say, especially after discovering Sweden's and Nordic democracy in general, is that I hate communism with all my heart. It's like cancer.

Yeah, I once posted a public (!) photo of her from a public (!) website of a university where she's teaching literature, but got banned here for "privacy violation". I still think that this gesture from admins was a disaster of a resolution. I mean it's not violation of anything, the photo was extremely formal and official and meant to be out in public, but hey, it's Mark's sister so apparently we can't discuss it. Close this topic then. Huh?

Thank God Brazil escaped from that - for the THIRD time - last year.
