|
jumperino: <I don't know of any scientific evidence which suggests that the current generation are brighter than, say, our ancestors of one or two hundred years ago. Better educated, better fed, healtheir, sure, but significantly brighter? I don't think so.> Interesting "scientific" ... |

|
jumperino: I don't know...with Qh6 White keeps the pressure on, but I still think black has some defenses left. Maybe something along the lines of 25. Qh6, Kf7 (odd to step into the pin, but the knight has to move or it's lost), 26. Nc7, Qg7 (hopes to trade queens to ease the pressure now). ... |

jumperino: I'm up for King's gambit too, although if black would cooperate, I'd love to try for Evan's gambit. |
