hehe, I was just making up the 1/2 SQRT 5 thing, probably isn't even right.

I wish I could love math.
In this case, it's exactly the same. However, we'd also say that 10+15 = 1 mod 12 and that 9+21 = 6 mod 12.

that would be 25/12 =2 with 1 left over and 30/12=2 with 6 left over.

Yes, okay, thanks, that does make sense.

You do a fine job expaining in retard terms. I appreciate that, it's sweet.

Maybe this would be the time to ask if you could expain the chess code-speak in the same terms, like bx1a...I cannot READ it, and I cannot WRITE it, and cannot seem to GET it.

Well thank you. That is enough for me to throw out this stupid idea of using my brain. Whatever was I thinking?

BTW, I was close on the 1/2 Sqrt 5 base thing, except its 200 + 200 =5 base ten.

Well there you go🙂 I wasn't trying to equate beauty with brains, in your case you obviously have both.

I know you weren't, I'm kidding around.
Now honestly, tell me about this chess code stuff, and I'll put some serious thought into zero gravity physical activities!

Hmm, lets see, should we retire to the 'chess only' forum?
Do you know about a chess term called 'space points'?

No, but I will after you tell me.

Now, I really need to go to bed. Will you give me a rain check until tomorrow, and we can talk about it either in a game, or the chessroom?

Okey dokey, BTW I looked at some of your games and I liked the one you played and won againt Tkd2 I think was his handle. The one where you checkmated with your rook and king. Check out the game again sometime, there was a point at which white could have kicked butt with a knight take pawn move. See if you can figure that one out.
Good night lady.
