Annoying page layout - looks like it was designed on a tall skinny screen. Opening page at least shouldn't need a scrollbar. There are 6 billion blogs out there, the opening page really needs to grab the reader's attention.

yea it was one of the standard layouts from blogger and I figure having some more room for the sidebar would be better. I'll try to look into expanding the blog post width although I'm not sure how yet. Any comment on the general content of the blog?

I liked it, it had a good beat you can dance to. I give it a 90 Dick. 🙂

Liked the piece on Blackjack and gambling.....I wonder how many chess players like to gamble. I think chess and gambling have many things in common........

I like it. The format could be improved, but the content is well-chosen and well-written. You have talent. I especially enjoyed the piece about dynamic equilibrium. And I agree that truth often arises from the seemingly irrelevant.

Thats true I think gambling is very relevant to anything related to Risk and Reward. Chess is definitely a game where taking risks can pay off but as with gambling it can also cause you to go broke (lose).

Thanks for the encouragement HandyAndy. I will try to do something about the format although my html skills are subpar at best.
