I am learning Spanish using Comprehensible Input: watching videos and listening to podcasts. I am also doing some reading. I am now at 1200 hours of CI. I hope to start speaking soon but I want to practice my Spanish pronunciation first. Your Imminent Fluency approach may help with my pronunciation and speaking. I am very interested in watching your future videos. Is there a website where we can download the 500 phrases / sentences? Looking forward to your next videos. - Dave

I have to say that your review of this set of chess pieces is very benevolent for how poor the craftsmanship is overall - especially considering that kind of money. I'm a big fan of this particular world championship match but I'm totally disappointed about this set. It's cheap looking and obviously it even feels cheap. The rooks are a catastrophe. The tins will break quickly and I bet that they don't even have to drop to the floor for this to happen. The sizes of the pieces are terrible too indeed. What a shame! Take a look at the new Capablanca Series Luxury Chess Pieces. They got everything right with that set which they got wrong with the Reykjavik II.

Great Review!. FYI, another rule of thumb is that from a sizing standpoint you should be able to fit 4 pawns on one square to have the correct proportions between the size of the board squares and the base of the pieces. also, with a 20 in board with 3 3/4 in king 17 in with 3 in king,14 in with 2 1/2 king

The topic of "Invisible Chess Moves" book sounds very interesting. Specially at a lower level like me, me as well as my opponent is likely to miss these things. So, even if it's not the perfect move - it makes sense to try these tactics that opponent might miss (and doesn't weaken my position horribly incase they notice). I find the psychology aspect interesting - because atleast at normal levels, it's all about probability. The engine might refute some attacks as defendable with perfect play, but will my opponent right now be able to figure that out? - is the bigger question.
