Fernando, You are right about Twain. I am not so sure about long range planning in chess. Tactics require no conceptualization but getting into a brilliant Bobby Fischer mid-game combo is where conceptualization is important. You and I will never play at 2850 ELO level and we will never know how these big boys think. Game analysis always seems clear after the move is made but even if we analyze the grandmaster games we will never be able to trip up the grandmaster. What is strange is that some GMs like Fischer can have such crack-brained ideas.
