Chess is punk rock?
Chess is for people who appreciate that the responsibility of the general or field commander cannot be overstated. They understand that strategy can be an incredible skill to have in any situation. They understand the burden of command. It's the original Command and Conquer or Star Craft.
I play often, though I've still not developed the skill I want to have (I want to beat deep blue).
What would make chess cooler? If hollywood stopped pretending they knew what the hell constituted a nerd and what being a nerd means. They're still stuck in 1985 with the breakfast club labels for groups. It's stupid.
