The feeling of such "force"...Thanks, Sean<br /><br />The feeling of such "force" in chess interests me, as I've felt it several times myself while playing. My ears perked up when I read that others have felt it too! <br /><br />I'm suspecting that there's a "psychic" aspect of chess that's not been generally recognized, hidden as it is within the intense rationality and logic of the game.<br /><br />Gonna try to get hold of the book you suggested and find the reference. If you happen to determine it's in another book, please post the info! :-) Thanks!Scott from Coloradonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5915652547136534595.post-86083031659537680002010-08-06T03:20:37.903-07:002010-08-06T03:20:37.903-07:00Hello Scott,
