Originally posted by chomperMy grandfather taught me how to play when I was six and although he was just a working class guy with lots of responsiblities, there were always chess books around my house. A game could always be had with him or my uncles and blunders were forgiven with a simple "You don't want to do that." Whatever player I became was because of him. He passed away two years ago and I know how you feel, brother.
