'Chess Is Serious Business'

Last November, when I posted about Multi-dimensional Chess Imagery ('For more about New York City's Chess Forum, see chessforum.com: "Your Gateway to the World of Chess".'), and A Democratic Game ('By one of those coincidences that can't be explained, Chess Forum was featured on this blog a week or so ago.'), little did I know that I was viewing the aftermath of 'The Civil War on Thompson Street'.


A Chess Shop Owner Achieves Business Expansion by Applying the Rules of the Game (5:42) • 'By OPEN Forum: Each week, MSNBC's Your Business features experts to share their secrets for improving your business.'
