My visitors always react with strange faces when I tell you that I don't like computers and that i prefare to use the pen and talk with people in real. Contradictions seem to be very difficult to understand for some people... >I happen to be able to read and write in several >languages besides my native Serbian. Brilliant !

How do you think about the austrian way of talking german, they have a nice slang... :-))) >It just so happened that I have been involved with >computer chess in very many ways and that I was subscribed to several >computer chess mags in different languages for a time (I even own most >of the 'abhorrent' CSS issues, starting with issue 1).

Really. I would deny the first and also the last. What is so narrow in my thinking ? The fact that you remembered an article that was published 250 times in germany in the year 1992 ? My mistake was that I forgot the MODUL/PC-SCHACH quoted out of it, so it was more than 250 times. Sorry. I forgot about this quoting. > My opinion, apparently shared >by a few here, is that you have recently gone to unacceptable extremes >much to the dismay of this quite informative and democratic forum. If so you should send the moderators a complain. Thanks. >Kind regards, >Djordje. The same kind regards back to you. Did you ever had a Maestro D++ ? Did you tried out Bxa3 position with it ?
