Whats the deal with placing an "x" or an "o" in the broken lines of the hexograms?

Lol, that makes it into a game and is the way that children are taught the I-ching :)

+ positive and  o negative, its like binary.

The "X" is a Yang breaking
The "O" is a Yin mending

All of the above answers are good and relevant.

What they do not explain are that the placing of X or O in lines also generates 2 hexagrams to give a more in depth answer to your question.

Hope this helps!

Mad is a word they use to describe those who do not conform to their narrow minded standards of "normality".

O or X means generates a change to your situation, it is very important in terms of prediction. Again you have to see what you are asking about to decide whether the change is good or bad.
I am an i ching master looking for an intelligent student in San Diego area with good integrity to pass on my teaching.
( California area is fine also, but you must travel to San Diego)
