I also read about that Ivanchuk incident in the saturday addition to our paper, and was like "WTF? doping in chess? How ridiculous is that?" It didn't however mention the background for those doping controls, that the FIDE want's to make chess a sport at the olympics. Now this makes some sense to me, atleast from a FIDE's point of view, but it's still absurd.
