Why are Russians so good at chess?

[Martin]

Because this is how they play



The more pieces you get...the more you drink!

 

[tweakmm]

wow
that looks like a really fun game

 

[apoppin]

Is there a University of Toronto in Russia?

And the REASON the Russkies are so good at chess (besides long winters) is that chess was fully State supported as well as a major part of Russian culture for a long time.

Um I'm just wondering...have you been to Canada? Do you know any Canadians? Did you fail grammer school? Are you a typical American? Many more questions that plague this world.

i think "fallen apart" is more apropos.

This is like that thread asking Asian people how to cook fried rice.

Due to the neo-fascist politically correct attitude to which the lemming population puts its faith in, I cannot answer this culturally stereotypical question.

All sarcasm aside, where can I get one of those?
