Ladies and Germs,

I asked my wife why she wasn't interested in computer chess and she said, " It's
too hard for me....I can't think in that way."   To be fair, her older brother
is a police Captain in Nassau County and he is smarter than me but he doesn't
play chess worth a damn.

My father always says, "Small things amuse small minds".  I always retort,
"Small things amuse big minds".   It appears that a certain subset of men like
computer chess.  Don't tell Kathe Spracklen that.  She knows more about computer
chess than most of you.

I think that our society is to blame.  It is not lady-like to be a whiz.  What a
terrible waste.  I love women who can think and I love women who can't!!!!!

Sincerely,

Tim Frohlick
