it probably won't be popular with a lot of people Trysts.

But lately i read about the alleged 22 soldiers per day commiting suicide from the trauma of coming home from war. That is the reality behind all the flag waving that side and this side. The absolute horror of it all, hiding behind the pretense of patriotic zeal & unspoken agendas. 

I am glad that people are speaking out. 

We don't claim our 'national dark' like we don't claim our individual dark. 

It is about time, we tried to start claiming both.

In 6/2009 I hit a high of 1783, and today I am at 1432. I have also been at the 1360 range a lot of times.

So I think why is that? What changed since then, I retired and now it's constant home life. I don't know if that is the problem or it's my mind.

I think the player pool is tougher now.  Used to be in the 1800's in 2010, now am in the 1600's.

Or maybe it's because it's more difficult to get my opponents to blunder when I mention whips & leather & chains in the chat.Laughing  

You are playing too many guys with chess engines Whip, you know how guys like their engines.
