Garry Retires

I still remember, as a high school student, reading my Chess Life magazines, especially during the Kasparov-Karpov world championship matches that took place from 1984 to 1985. Now, an era in my life is over. Kasparov, whom I consider to be the greatest chess player to ever have lived has announced his retirement from tournament chess. I guess he wants to exit while he is still at the top of his game (or nearly so). Here are the details from Chessbase.com.
