Subject: a Bowcaster! new chess move for programs

  Yes there are a lot of draws in chess, and there are a lot of variants i
suggest a single move that will make the game infinitely more complex without
changing the nature of the game.  The suggestion is that in the game to play the
game so that players have the option of a single solitary backward pawn push or
pawn capture.  They should say Bowcaster when they do it(why, because it's my
idea and i like the sound of it! :)!  I think this variant should be programmed
into new computer programs.  The game would remain essentially the same but much
harder and would eliminate todays frequent draws, because of the difficulty of
having to calculate backward pawn push's and captures would make greater room
for human error.
