Anson
has a variety of interests. This list shows just a few of them.
Oh, yeah. Anson wanted me to say that, just 'cause it's
listed here, he doesn't necessarily agree with everything in following
sites. Not even the ones he wrote!
Fischer
Random Chess (FRD)
Grandmaster Bobby Fischer's chess variant, designed to level the playing
field of the game to make it truly a test of skill and ability and not dependent upon rote
memorization.
Zillions of Games
A "universal gaming engine" for Windows! You can play
FRD or any of dozens (hundreds?) other chess variants on your PC with it, along with
hundreds (thousands? zillions?) of other games as well.

Majestic Twelve
Is it really a super-above top secret organization like it
purports to be, or just an elaborate joke? If it's a joke, why does it have secret
messages hidden deep within the web page?
Society for Amateur Scientists

research and educational organization dedicated to helping people enrich their lives by
following their passion to take part in scientific adventures of all kinds.
"The
Curious Republic of Gondour" by Mark Twain
In which is described a truly unique method of voting and
holding elections.
"As We May Think" by Vannevar
Bush
It's 1945, and Vannevar Bush describes a device to access
information strangely reminiscent of the World Wide Web. A truly advanced thinker. Rumors
that he was a founder of Majestic Twelve have not been confirmed.
Occam's Razor
"...one should not increase, beyond what is necessary,
the number of entities required to explain anything..."
The
Anthropic Principle
"The basic idea of the Anthropic Principle is that our
perception of the world is affected by the observational bias that we can only observe the
world around us if we are here to observe it." And would you like fries with that?
