There were several longer and more detailed ones but they were all very dark and critical of him...

I don't see why they should be dark.
He was a man of remarkable genius, although without a doubt having many strange quirks.
The page pretty much speaks for itself.
One thing I can't get over, was his "wanted" status for playing the 1992 rematch against Spassky.
[Sarcasm]Despite political sanctions, I believe any chess rematches should be outlawed. They are after all the epicenter of evil in the universe.[/Sarcasm]

unfortunatly like any child prodigy or star he didnt turn out entirely normal. Also like them, people tend to only remember the mistakes they made later in life.
