"You don't stop playing when you get old; you get old when you stop playing!" Benjamin Franklin
Here is the only truth:  "We are the pawns of the mysterious game of chess played by God,  who moves us,  stops us,  shifts us ahead,  and soon picks us up one after the other and gathers us in the same box of  Nothing."
Omar Khayyam 1040 ad

"Chess grips its exponent, shackling the mind and brain so that the inner freedom and independence of even the strongest character cannot remain unaffected."  Albert Einstein
"Imagination does not breed insanity. Exactly what does breed insanity is reason.  Poets do not go mad;  but chess-players do".
—Chesterton, The Maniac (1908).

is doing what is impossible
 for  talent"

Fuerstman Leads Top; Morais "B"; Alexander, Eerenberg "C"; Gatlin, Lee Lower Section of Seafarer IV
Our 100th 5 Round Event Since Wendy's I * 2-10-99!

Charlotte, NC 11-5-08:  A slightly weaker turnout of 10 of the most amicable chess players in the Charlotte area converged upon this polling station more commonly known as the Seafarer (Just look for the 3-D Whale) in order to participate in Rd:2 of Seafarer IV. In the Top Section, the CCC's #6 player and pride of Mint Hill, NM Leland "Ennui" Fuerstman (2011) was forced to sacrifice the exchange against Derek "Cats" Smith (1753) but somehow survived (See Game 768) to lead with 1.5-.5. In the "B" Section, Alain "Rastamon" Morais (1727) bested Vadims "the Mad Latvian" Mudrovs (1538) to lead with 2-0. In the "Lower Section," Winfred "Guns" Gatlin (1325) outplayed upstart Charlie "Tenor" Carerros (1437) to lead with 2-0. In order to observe all results see "Current Crosstable". (The facility was great! Everybody was happy! We hope that more players will join us next week to dine, socialize and play chess!) -  Long live the CCC! LF *    - Quark VIII - Nov 29! -
