Subject: Draws

I rarely accept draws, nor do I offer them much. What's the point? Hard to learn a game if you don't finish it and see how it goes with changing conditions. Perhaps if I played better I might recognize when to take a draw, but in the meantime I'll be playing until there's a winner or a lack of force forces it to be a draw. I feel simular about resigning, except if my opponent resigns there's not much I can do about it.
