Question: Have you ever, at any time, won a chess match?

I haven't. Even against a computer. I'm that bad at it.

And you know what? One time somebody "challenged" me about the chemical 
symbol for Tin. Well *obviously* that can't even change. How could I 
*possibly* loose? But loose I did. (Sb isn't Tin. It's the one right 
next to it. Only 1 letter and one proton different. Damn it!)

Like So Greats said, "The greatest knowledge is in knowing that you know 
nothing."
