Eric Schiller

Welcome to Eric Schiller's website!

 
I'm Eric Schiller. Born and raised in New York, I am now residing in Moss Beach, California, just south of San Francisco, on the Pacific Coast. I spend my time doing many things, mostly involving chess, linguistics, computers and music, though my political activities in support of Al Gore's agenda and civil rights often take priority.

I am often online in various chess communities ( mainly chess.com, chessgames.com) and blog at www.dailyKos.com as MakeChessNotWar.

I teach chess and English skills on the SF Peninsula and online. In 2009/10 I am teaching at Palo Verde, Encinal, Granada, Nativity, and Nueva schools.

 
If you are looking for Eric Schiller who composed some new age music, that's not me, and sadly the talented young man passed away in 2000. Nor am I the Eric Schiller who studies water management. And I'm not the Eric Schiller who wrestles, except with ideas. Nor am I the young Erik Schiller who lives nearby and also plays chess. Isn't life on the 'Net confusing?

GET THE FACTS!!!!

American corporate media are utterly useless for getting the facts about what is going on in the world. The following links will get you to the truth about what is going on in the world. Visit them often!

Locally, the Coastsider site has all the reports that the Half Moon Bay Review refuses to publish, and is essential reading.
