Practice!! (against people, not JUST programs, playing people is very
important, and I don't mean just correspondence games, face to face,
over the board) and read good books by Seigbert Tarrasch, Irving
Chernev, and Emanual Lasker, _most_ Chess authors who are still living
do not write books worth reading....  the time you waste reading their
books could be better spent playing a game of Chess (that's a
generalization but mostly true).
