Hi - This national geographic special shows a young hungarian lady who can essentially play and win five games of chess blindfolded. Instead of a blindfold, here she is playing only by voice to voice over a mobile phone. Her father, a psychologist, trained her to excel at chess. This would seem to argue for nurture versus nature, for chess is a position-sensitive game.

But the corpus calliostrum or tissue connecting the right and left sides of the brain is more substantial in females. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
