Go up one level in this thread


My Thanks to all of the members that responded to this thread

it was very reassuring to see that many members are still playing chess and not
just letting the computers have all the fun..
no matter if life's commitments only will allow a game or two a month or several
games a night
and no matter if  is against humans,dedicated units,the PC ,Pda's etc etc
in my opinion if we stop playing chess and just let the computer do the
thinking.somehow we lose something

as for me...i manage about a dozen games a week..usually Blitz(game/10/30)
and yes..even i ,every now and again will take up hostilities against
CM5500(only PC prog i currently own)

a bit sad i think ,that when we were younger we had more time to play chess and
as we grew older life allowed us  less time

when we retire from our jobs/careers we of course will have time again but i can
speak for myself when i say..
i think i will be an early candidate for Alzheimer's  and when i finally have
time to play more often i will probably be so far gone,that if you sit me down
and put me in front of a chess board i will probably put the King or Queen in my
mouth..

Best Regards
Steve
