At the same time there should be room to experiment and evolve the game. I wonder, why a lot of arguing for Fischer Random Chess would be understood being hostile against the classical chess variant. There is not at all such an intention (speaking for myself). >Surely there must be a bit of tolerance towards eachother? Absolutely right. The idea to have FRC implemented in chess engines too is not, to establish a substitute for normal chess. But traditional chess has now gathered such a lot of information on openings, that learning the game of chess is less inventing combinations during play but instead reproducing well known moves from memory. I do not like this kind of chess, others do, especially experienced older GM had invested a lot of time and effort into that knowledge. So everybody can choose the sort of chess of his taste. >So how come things always turn black and white in here, can't we have CCC in >colour? :) What is wrong, when FRC fans are arguing to make the original FRC proposal realized? What is ok, when FRC opponents try to disturb this process? So live and let live! Thus if you are thinking, that FRC is intolerant against classical chess, so please explain, where you see such a thing. Reinhard
