Go

(A friend of mine is an avid Go player. He went once to a weekend Go conference, and played against the instructor. My heavily paraphrased illustration of what he told me:)




He placed his stone on the board.

"Why did you go there?" she asked

"It felt like a good move." he replied
he was telling me this story as a response to my decent beginning intuition

"But why," she pressed. "You should have a reason."




I suppose intuition and reason are at their best when tempered with each other.
