What I post to the blog is limited to the Outlet Creek watershed, to give it a geographical framework, but the arts and humanities "moments" really make it the place it is. I'm grateful for your visits, and I take inspiration from your blog.<BR/><BR/>Saretta - It really seems to be very widely played. I think it is most enjoyed by people who take satisfaction in strategic competition. The different moving pieces each have uniquely specified scopes of movement, and the better player you are, the better you are at imagining all the potential moves your opponent might make, and can then adjust your anticipations with every move she makes in counterpoint to your own moves. The variables are vast, and some tactical gambits are given names, etc. It can become quite an obsession for some people.<BR/><BR/>Thank you both for commenting.USelainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15551995221350532168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7345176050895872295.post-54112763252164424292008-11-16T10:41:00.000-08:002008-11-16T10:41:00.000-08:00One day I'll learn how to play chess...it looks so...One day I'll learn how to play chess...it looks so interesting!Sarettahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15467303139294282551noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7345176050895872295.post-35744021369986375952008-11-16T08:02:00.000-08:002008-11-16T08:02:00.000-08:00I believe you are right.Looks like "Checkmate" to ...I believe you are right.<BR/><BR/>Looks like "Checkmate" to me!!<BR/><BR/>I like your variety of topics; restaurants to wilderness, meeting halls to music.<BR/><BR/>Well done!Ron Bloomquisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18002890847388840918noreply@blogger.com
