I'm not going to start a debate on this frankly. I'll just say that proving he
was GM Short would be quite easy. Short has some well-known nicks on the servers
such as Playchess and ICC. If Short, usinng one of those well-known nicks (top
GMs also often have a few 'anonymous' nicks to get some peace) were to declare
on the server that he was in fact A.Steen, that would be enough.
