At ChessBase 23.03.2005: Bobby Fischer is due to be released from the
Japanese detention center a few hours from now. Specifically at midnight
GMT. 'The passed Fischer pawn has been shepherded home to the eighth
rank,' wrote the RJF Committee, 'It can now be promoted into a piece,
with complete freedom of movement.' Fischer will leave Japan on Scandinavian 
Airways and fly to Copenhagen at 12:40 PM on Thursday.
