There's another in where 32 persons disguise as pieces and go to their positions, then other two players call the moves and the persons act as the pieces... Maybe Steve thinks that's not chess either ;) >Those were the good old days. That was 30 years ago. Everybody has his "old days" :) I think I'm living my old days right now (Like in 40 years I will say: "I remember when there were something called computers and chess was played physically... Todays' virtual mental chess matches are fun, but I used to have to write stuff using a device called keyboard and answering the best I could on something called forums... Those were the days :)" )... Or something like that you know ;) >I admire europeans for their love of the game. It is not the same here in the >north america. Different cultures I guess. In México chess is practically unknown, there are some tourneys that give prices and clubs in where to play (And some schools even teach it as basic as math or spanish) but its hardly underrated... Most mexicans find it the most boring game in history and preffer to play Grand Theft Auto (sp), Mario Kart Double Dash, Real Strategy Games on internet and so chess is just an option they'd preffer seeing other person play anything boring than themselves playing chess (With some exeptions, like me :)) > >all the best > >Murat ...
