Boletus type fungus

[NickCantle]

Why didn't I just get lumped with an interest in Computers or Chess?

If you've got a rook in Chess, it's definitely a rook. Sure there are variations from set to set, but it'll always be a rook. It doesn't only grow on a certain species of Chessboard, it doesn't decay making it harder to ID because a rook is a rook.

Same for a Pawn,

Same for a Bishop...




















You get the idea

Just imagine how interesting the game would be if one day a bishop could move diagonally and the next it was horizontal and vertical.

Lmao,

I suppose it's the level of difficulty in the subject that makes it so challenging and interesting

Seeing as Mr Morchella is into chess I think I can advise sticking to fungi as being far more enjoyable and a lot less complicated.

Mind you, if you change your mind there are hundreds of chess books in my living room that I'd love to see the back of if I didn't think I'd get into all sorts of trouble
