Seems the brain magnetic resonance scanning confirms what we've all suspected -
that GMs tend to use their memory, wheras weak players have to do it by
calculation (the chess computer method).

The number of patterns a GM is said to be familiar with seems to have
mysteriously risen from 50,000 ("Chess Skill In Man And Machine") to 100,000 -
any idea how that happened, anyone?
