The Real Reason Joel Channing Resigned by samsloan
Bill Brock states on the New York Times Gambit Blog, "Mr. Channing had a vision, and a sense of the concrete steps USCF needed to take". I would like Mr. Brock to tell us what his vision was and what those steps were, because I never heard Mr. Channing state those things.

The Queen says to forsake computers by Bassam King Karzeddin
Chess is not limited to mathematics and brute force calculations. Instead, chess is an art. Therefore, computer-based chess is not artistic.

Real chess ? by Mike Murray
Over on Playchess.com yesterday, I was playing Black in a 5-minute game. The game opened 1 d4 Nc6, 2 Nf3 d5, 3 Bf4 Bg4, 4 e3 f6. At this point, my opponent, evidently a German player with a FIDE rating of about 2240, resigned! I sent him a message asking why he resigned. He replied, "I want to play real chess". Hmmmm.
