as far as '65' squares. sounds like one of those fun iq tests where you have to include the 'square' of the board itself to get your 65 answer!

One of the students was doing math and one of his answers on the manuscript was something like "2+3=6". I just figured this chess player took the same class <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
