A true jubilee appears in the final chapter of our small series as the
birthday of our Munich friend Hans-Georg Kleinheinz recurred
for the 50th time on November, 28. Since decades he has devoted himself
to OTB play for already in his youth in the town of Stolberg/Rhineland
and during his studies of computing science in Aachen Hans-Georg was active
as a club player in the "Stolberger SV von 1927" (Stolberg Chess
Club of 1927); and till today he keeps the tradition to compete at least
once a year in a tournament, here preferring alpine countries (in former
times the Brocco-Open in San Bernardino, nowadays above all the Biel Open
or tournaments in Liechtenstein). For an exemplary amateur like him the
participation itself and deriving pleasure from playing are in the centre
of attention. Additionally he likes to go on a long ramble which caused
a less trained companion in the Brocco-Open 1994 a lot of trouble. At
least the white "attack" runs out of steam very quickly:

A further passion of Hans-Georg is collecting chess literature: over the
years he has built up an exquisite collection – a first impression
gives the magnificent photo on his website
which he has re-designed this year. At least one Stolberg chess friend
– namely M.N. – got his inspiration from Hans-Georg’s
collecting passion and valuable suggestions emerged from a number of visits.
The precise Munich investigations about Warren Goldman, Hans Müller
or Albert Heyde were "worth their weight in gold" – also
many a great idea such as consulting simply a telephone directory ...
At our Forchheim meeting we could personally welcome Hans-Georg; for us
who have known him for a more or less long time it was a joyful reunion
which we hopefully may experience many times again.
For your "50th", dear Hans-Georg, many happy returns of the
day!
