Achilles: Why look, Tortise, Normanjeanyates has made a post. What do you think it means?

Tortise: It looks like she's been reading some Hofstadter recently!

sloth: re 2, GEB doesnt say which book. I read the book long before GEB was concieved of.

re 1: i dont see any connection with Hofstadter... At least, there are two connections with Hofstadter [though it is not part of some Escher work]  - Art, and self-reference ;) [hint to answer to 1st question!]

If you sit down at the board, shake your opponents hand, and he says, "Hi, my name is Fritz," should you be concerned?
Avatar of Gokukid
No I should not be concerned if his name is Fritz or even if his name is Junior.  But I should be...if he adds Deep on his name.

Haha.  I should have asked, "5.32 or 9 or 11?  I just want to know what I'm up against."  Is there an 11?

Or, "Hi Fritz, my name is Rybka."

Actually he was a good guy.

Q1. How many roads must a man walk down before you call him a man?

A1.  Depends entirely on how he walks them.

Q3. How many times must the cannon balls fly before they're forever banned?

Q3. The answer's not encouraging. 

Q4.How many years must a mountain exist before it is washed to the sea?

A4.  Please, not while I'm out there in my little kayak!  OK, more of a comment than an answer.

These questions are too hard!

Good questions, though.  Maybe someone else has the answers.

scariest aspect is that some of them are not so hard at all, we just don't like the answers

chess is a game.  chess is a sport.  chess is an art.  chess is a mindgame.  chess is a wargame.  It can't simply be confined to one dimension only and that's what i like about chess.  Those involved in sports are athletes and to develop their athletic abilities they train (physically) hard for them to sustain the pressure of the competition.  Unfortunately cheater_1 will not accept the physicality of the brain's training.  In my opinion the brain exerts so much effort analysing chess positions.  It becomes even more exhausting if the game lasts for about 5 hours.  When you look at Kobe Bryant you know that at sight that man is an athlete.  The only problem I have with cheater_1 is if he points out that Viktor Korchnoi, compared to Kobe Bryant, doesn't look like an athlete at all thereby making chess merely a game and not a sporting athletic activity.
