| Nigel takes Reykjavik by, well, storm
14.01.2002 After a harrowing battle
with snow-storms Nigel Short did eventually arrive in Reykjavik, Iceland,
for his match against local GM star Hannes Stefansson. After a somewhat shaky
start – who's going to blame him after auch an adventurous journey –
Nigel settled down to thoroughly beat Stefansson with a final score of 4˝-1˝. More

And this is the original Fischer-Spassky, which Short and Stefansson
used for their match.
