1) This rule is ridiculous. I suggest we should use the 'world's worst
chessplayer' rule-that is, if the opponent is out of time and it's
theoretically possible to checkmate him, it's a win, otherwise it's a
draw. Don't you people agree?

2) Also, each chess set should contain two queens for each player, and no
player should be able to have more than two queens! This is reasonable!

3) And one more bright idea from me: here's a way to compensate for the
advantage of being white: one player sets the chess clock (with unequal
times for white and black), whilst the other chooses the side. 

Damn it, I should be in the FIDE rules committee!
