Jan-31-07 Morphy vs Duke Karl / Count Isouard, 1858    francescog: <Shams> please don't kill yourself :-) you made me notice that it was time to update the profile!

Thinking is required in order to appreciate the beauty of a game, but different thinkers have different conceptions of beauty. Regarding Einstein, he was ...      Jun-23-05 Hydra vs Adams, 2005    francescog: hello everybody :) do you really think that Adams picked the wrong bishop?
