Subject: To take or not to take?

   I live in NY, and when I go down to the Washington Square Park the rules to
Blitz chess is you don't call check and if you opponent doesn't move the King
you can take it to end the game, and I've also read this in another chess book
which I don't recall the name. I've never checked it in the USCF rule book
though. My question is if the rule is true how come the ICC doesn't use this
rule and chess programs don't follow it either?
