Those factors are very serious problems only for those who like it the
way it is now. And those people talk about SPICE and KCF exploring their
individual paths forward as a 'rift', since it ain't a monolithic
approach, which in their opinion should run everything [down].

BB and Chessville have no journalistic credibility what-so-ever. BB's
buddy Kelly Atkins is chumming with Susie in Texas. From Susie's Blog with

... The BRAIN!

The BRAIN already announced several things in his intro, including the fact
that despite more readers at Chessville than of ChessLife, this form of
journalism is without 'credibility' in his world. The BRAIN is, methinks,
using words unusually!

Though, to be absolutely fair to the BRAIN, it is possible that he doesn't
know what an editor is, or simply dislikes what-so-ever they do? If the
BRAIN's heros are Hanken and Hough, then ho-hah! Say no more, all is
understood.

"This is Mr. Kelly Atkins, one of the editors and forum host at
chessville.com. He will be visiting SPICE and Texas Tech today to do an
exclusive behind the scene college chess report. Many people hear about
the incredible success of SPICE in a very short period of time. But how do
we do it? After this visit, Kelly will report the behind the scene secret
of success of SPICE and its plans in the future."

Since Chessville is the first major chess site to report on SPICE and with
an on-site reporter spending several days in Lubbock, half a day of
interviews and photography, inclusive of meeting significant folks from the
University and the town, then I wonder exactly what 'real' journalists do in
the BRAIN's native state of New Hampshire?

Perhaps they don't go anywhere in NH, nor speak with others in more than a
cursory way, and in this way share their fascinating opinions with all who
still listen to them.

Unfortunately the BRAIN neglects to mention the extent of his own public, as
such, but I am sure there are those who find his style and opinions
congenial to their own 'orientation', and do not actually require anything
else.

Such folks are excused the rest of the class, and can do extra gym. [no pun
intended]
