From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I am an European, so that the blood of four nations (Polish, Ukrainian, Hungarian, and Jewish) runs in my veins. My nickname is Mi. I was born in Belz (Galicia, the former Austro-Hungarian Monarchy) in 1948. Currently I live in Upper Silesia. I have a PhD in Environmental Science.


Among others, I am interested in history of chess, especially the period 1850-1950.
