Could USCF learn something from MENSA?
I just had an interesting thought...
Odd that no one here seems to have any discussions about this.

"... Richard Haas has been arguing the Mensa-model for the USCF here
for years. It's usually dismissed out of hand, ... " (Matt Nemmers) ============= The ideal national chess federation would borrow some things from Mensa, but not everything. In particular the ideal chess federation would be organizationally focused on the basic market for organized chess, the metro area in most cases, and it would fund the metro organizational unit with a substantial share of each national dues collected from within. If we had that sort of thing in the USCF we'd have a pretty good hands-on, can-do national chess federation. R S Haas
