INTRODUCING...... ALEC, THE LITTLE ALCHEMIST!

So happy to meet you - and so glad that we'll be enjoying the wonderful world of chess together!

You might ask yourself, What is this little guy doing inside my computer?” It's simple: I LOVE CHESS! And, what better way to enjoy the game whenever possible, than to be here every single time you turn your computer on! Chess is truly a magical game - it's fun, exciting, and intellectually stimulating. You simply couldn't ask for a better way to spend your time! So, my goal in life is to be your constant companion, ready and willing to play whenever you are!

If you see me grinning, don't worry - I'm not making fun of you ... I'm just delighted in my own chess abilities! And, when you see me cry after I lose a game, don't feel too sorry for me -- I might just beat you the next time around!

Have a fabulous time ... as for me, I'll look forward to enjoying many great games with you, now and for a long time to come ...!

Have fun!

    Alec
