Isn't "perspective" the most "simple as possible" -- "sense of context"?

Confusion is a terrible thing, isn't it.

Hi RN,

I think 'fock off then' is the appropriate repost.

Don't let the swinging doors hit you on the way out.

the color of the squares doesn't matter, nor does the color of the pieces.

the colors are just conventions, for convenience (get it?)

The point is where the square is located and which piece it is that starts on the square and the rules that govern the moves

after that, any color is just a marker for clarity

now, this one guy i saw yesterday had one green and one yellow sock. that was just plain wrong! i could have vomited even though he was kind of cute, nice you know what and all

i guess he could have been color blind

he probably would have bought one of those chess sets and just turned the board when he went to play

sure, that's it! turn the board!

see? He could have just switched socks and everything would have been all right

If the board is incorrect by 90 degrees, you can still play...but you won't be playing chess .

How can you be certain? The dryer monster may have eaten one of each pair,
and those were the remnants.
