Here is the embellishment by Ron Gross, putting himself in Bobby Fischer's childhood timeline, in times and places he WAS NOT. Any person with a reasonably rational, logical mind can see through the false narrative, to Bobby Fischer's true circumstances. Ron Gross' fake narrative skids all over the place, then falls flat on its face. He had nothing at all in common with Bobby. Bobby was a loner and super-achiever, and Gross' childhood descriptions of himself, one of rebellion and juvenile delinquency:
The actual truth:
--> “…Bobby's exceptional ability was brought to light when his mother, anxious to keep his mind occupied, advertised in a local newspaper for some child to play chess with him." <--

SOME CHILD?!
ANY CHILD?
-vs-
“The two children who roam together through the crowded sidewalks are friends and share a common passion: chess.”

NO CHILDHOOD CHESS PLAYERS IN BOBBY'S LIFE? Ron Gross rewriting Bobby's history!
Because Ron Gross was not in Bobby's life, keeping him occupied all the time, as Ron Gross feigns during the 1980's and beyond, during his attempts to slander Bobby in the press.
Ron Gross proceeds to mislead the public,
“They have became known for participating in various youth tournaments and whenever they meet they usually spend a lot of time together.”
BECAME KNOWN??!
Not in any of the newspapers I've culled, Ron Gross. You're no where mentioned sir.
“…One of them has just moved from California to New York, because it is the chess mecca of the United States. The other, Bobby, has grown up in this same city, where he is already a regular in chess clubs. In fact, he usually skips school classes to participate in tournaments.”
Really Ron Gross?
Then why does not one single newspaper report “Bobby's best buddy” who was leading Bobby to act like a ‘juvenile delinquent’ in trouble with truancy officers for skipping school??
In fact, I have a newspaper article which shows Bobby was given a gold medal for his outstanding achievements and making high grades… and commended by school staff…
“…But last year, despite an intensive schedule, he settled down and scored 97 in mathematics, 90 in Spanish and 80 in biology examinations.”
