I play Go.

It's harder than chess, when I was learning, I said my brain was melting and going to run out of my ears.

Here's the interesting part, saw an article about how birding slows down Alzheimers. You're always looking, hunting for birds, your brain is active.

I was always smart, but Go made me smarter. You learn patterns playing Go that you often see in life. When you're playing you're constantly looking for patterns that will give you an advantage.

The best chinese schools teach Go from the start. Among other things, it tells them who is truly gifted at a very early age. Huge bang for the education buck..

"Life is a simplified of Go."
Magister Ludi

Which is silly, but, if you play, you know what he meant.

Fight entropy until you die.
