Seekers,
Go is a remarkable game that originated in China. Go is played by tens of millions in Japan and
Korea. Go is about 3000 years old and still played in its original form. Deceptively simple, go is
elegantly complex yet mindnumbingly deep. It has no direct Western analog. (Chess is not even in the
same league at all but trying to tell that to chess players is like trying to tell upright bikers
that a recumbent is worth trying.)
You may have seen go in the recent films "Beautiful Mind" and "Pi."
For some introductory information about go: www.samarkand.net www.usgo.org www.wingsgoclub.org
I play go online and I'd love to meet up with someone on Cycle Oregon who would like to play in
camp. Drop me a note if you'd like to meet me online at KGS, IGS or NNGS sometime.
