Three summers ago I spent all my free time playing chess and reading chess books - it was pretty awesome :smile: and I got to be a decent player, but I haven't played since then. I used to play at www.redhotpawn.com
Thanks for all the suggestions! It has been very dry and cold here in Denver, though we finally got some snow today. I will check out the anti static spray (the anti-static Jackets are cool, but I don't think I could pull off the look). The ideas about touching metal objects sound good and I...
First of all, I know nothing about physics, so if I use the wrong term, or something don't get me too hard of a time :smile: But this problem has been really bugging me these past few weeks. For some reason, my jacket seems to give me a huge amount of static electricity. Almost every time I...

I went to the joint AMS/MAA math meeting this past January in San Diego - it was a blast! It is the only meeting I have ever gone to, but it was a great experience. Also, it was all paid for too (including a trip to the San Diego zoo :biggrin:). My favorite talk was from a guy named Robert...
When I was at Target a few weeks ago, I considered trying that stuff out, but ended up going with the classic Listerine - I'm glad I did :smile:
