That was a nice touch, Andy, in a nice "light-hearted thread about Rusty".

on and off the chess board and other battlegrounds of daily life. Inevitably the confronting questions become... who
leads; who follows; who does the heavy lifting; where is the leverage; where do I/we push. Some go about it alone.
Some prefer little groupies, herds, factions, etc, according to their comfort ones. Some spectators in pleasant seats.

-Removed-Two-way street, Dive. Where and from whom do you think any of us acquire our unique viewpoints and highly individualistic styles? Encounters with books, media and enforced contact with teachers/mentors/bosses play a role. Primary/ongoing stimulus is everyday contact with people we know well or not even at all. So happens that I love people (as much if not more than I detest costumed imposters, takers, bullies, deceitful frauds, cowards, devious clowns). Always taken initiatives to seize fleeting opportunities to chit chat and/or talk seriously, learn from or be warmed by touching another soul. I flex to the level required.
