I do believe Joe is on the right track now regarding GO and Chess Variants.
 Changing GO pieces to Wazirs and Ferz would make it a Chess and GO Variant
at the same time.  But that is not a game for me.

GO has been played as it is for about 4000 years, and I still enjoy
playing GO by its intended ancient rules.  To get Chess, I simply play
'Chess.'  But Go variants are out there.  Games like Pente, Go-Moku,
Orthello, etc.  There is certainly room for Joe's new GO-Variant idea.
