Haha, I still remember the creepy theme.
Saw it as a kid, didn't really understand. Saw it a few years later and was amazed at how much I missed.
What if a girl became World Chess Champion?
Sort:
First DVD I ever bought after finally abandoning VHS.
Yeah that makes sense Mr. Grobe. Thanks for the movie titles, and going through at least 2 pages of posts to find my comment. Also, in regards to the freefall analogy, I'm sure the same can be said if one were to jump off a building: "It's not the fear of the fall, but the sudden stop that worries me!"

GM Judy Polgart refuses to play in any chess match that sets women aside from men. I teach chess down at the Senior Center on Tuesdays starting at 12:30.
A quick lecture or video and then everyone pairs up and playes a 1 hour (per person, time control game).
I see no problem with real women in today's society. I have come to realize over the years that most women are smarter than most men.
Join the 'DUNE Team' and you can see this for yourself.

I can't believe that with all you sexists and amateur physicists out there nobody has suggested yet that if a woman became world chess champion we could just go back in time and kill HER grandfather..

You fail to understand how that works...
I you go back in Time and manage to kill her frandfather I have to ask you? What made you think her the mother would become pregnant by another man!?
In fact, that might hve been necessary for the 'gift child' to be born. So, you see... you probably need to do that in order to make the 'gift child'.
BUT, there are others who say that it only affects 1 of millions of dimensions and that you would end up returning to the one you had altered - whereas the original would move on.
Oh well, I wouldn't waste time on these things. Just let nature play it's own course.
Cheers,
Don

That algebraic expression was only valid in the future.

Flying to Norway tomorrow. Booked my flight this afternoon at my travel agent's offices. The name of the travel agent, you ask?
Time Travel, of course.
