Hello! How was exams? Not too bad I hope! Bridge players are supposed to be intellectual. To substantiate this claim, I was reading this article(by chance when I logged into BBO) about an Indian Bridge player debating with an Indian Chess player. Both are experts of course.

"Vishy came out with the revelation that being proficient in these mindsports generally improved the performance of the students in all subjects. This he said has been established in several researches."

"At this point Dhadi pointed out that Bridge was a part of the curriculum in Norway/st1:place> and Sweden where academic credits were awarded for learning Bridge."

After reading the second quote I got a sudden urge to go to Norway and Sweden universities :)
