				Stupid, meaningless questions I've thought of. Mostly about chess.

Your move! 
 
1. If you could get one chess player to play a game for your life, who would it be? (like in Bergman's The Seventh Seal)
 
2. Who is the hottest female in chess?
 
3. How many lives would it take you take you to watch the entire content  of Youtube? (a bit like the auto-didact in Satre's Le Nausee, except  for the internet generation.)
 
4. How many lives to read the entire content of Amazon's back catalogue? (see above.)
 
5. What is your favourite chess game of all time? (Viswanathan Anand was once asked this question and replied  "Gormally-Sutovsky was a lot of fun." I was on the losing side.)
 
6. What do you think the population of the world will be in thousand years time?
 
7. And do you think chess will be solved by that point?
 
8. Who do you think will be world chess champion in ten years?
 
9. Do you think nuclear war will happen in the foreseeable future?
 
10. Who would win a match between Garry Kasparov and Magnus Carlsen?
 
11. Who is the greatest chess player of all time?
 
12. And who is the greatest athlete in any sports?
 
13. If you could be given a glimpse of what the world would look like in  a million years time, but to do so would mean ten years taken off your  life, would you take it?
 
That's all the questions I can think of for now...
