I find this rather interesting. (This too. The claim of a mate-in-1942 must be a bug, as there are too few pieces on the board. This begs the question: given that the 50-move rule is always invoked when possible, what is the longest possible game of chess?)
 
Of course, this trick is not new.

I don't have much interest in chess, but that is interesting.
