...adult chess is on an unstoppable decline. Like stamp collecting, model trains, and other pursuits of the past, adult chess players are getting older, their numbers are shrinking dramatically, and they are destined to become a small but dedicated sub-culture in this country, like breweriana collectors. ... Nothing will stop this. Our children will not, as adults, be members of the USCF. Add the Internet into the mix, and you see the death knell.

[7/30/15 kwg] After looking at the old graph of USCF membership rates for a while, I decided it needs to be updated, so here is the new version:
b
[1/23/05 kwg] While breathlessly awaiting the Winter Antics and possible feedback from Kirk's questionnaire, I found myself pondering the present state of Chess in America. Actually, my musings began with yet another boneheaded message seen on an internet newsgroup, saying in part:
b
Two things bugged me about this message, all the more so because I have heard these claims made at tournaments and meetings as well: (a) the notion that chess is on some long-term decline (clearly false), and (b) that computers and the internet have hurt chess participation (false in my view).
b
Look at the graph above, and allow me to add my interpretation. Notice that as a percentage of the population, serious chessplayers (as represented by USCF members here) are as numerous now as at the height of the Fischer boom. Surprised? I was when I first looked at the numbers a year or so back. Note the two dramatic increases. First came the spike in activity surrounding the 1972 World Championship match, which gave back some ground but still resulted in a long-term boost. Then something happened in the early 1990's. Ah, yes, I remember now: tons of media coverage of matches between Kasparov and powerful computers, Garry over Deep Thought in 1990, Garry over Deep Blue in 1996, and finally Garry's loss in the 1997 rematch with Deep Blue. It is perhaps telling that Deep Blue was the first "chess player" on the cover of Newsweek since Fischer (or so I've read).
b
Basically, chess is alive and well, in the USA and in Alabama, but let's face it: at 30 players per 100,000 people, organized chess still has lots of room to grow. So what's our next move? Perhaps our new ACF president's survey will help answer that. Kirk?

[12/9/04 kwg] I have finally replaced my clunky old game viewer with a new version that uses JavaScript for faster user interaction. There are still several items on my to-do list for this feature, and I would appreciate user feedback on this - so please
b
[11/13/04 kwg] My chess calendar script is now online, and data entry is in process. The idea is to give a tabular view of past and future events, with links to tournament reports and announcements. Please
b
[7/18/04 kwg] Bobby Fischer is once again in the news, and as usual the news isn't good.
b
Despite all this, Bobby Fischer is never far from the thoughts of many American chessplayers, and his name is seldom absent from the pages of Chess Life magazine. After all, his brillant play and total (but brief) dominance of the chess world led to a tremendous boom in American chess. Just imagine: Live coverage of a chess match on ABC's Wide World of Sports! USCF membership doubling in less than two years!
b
A banquet room in a Montgomery, AL hotel packed with players for the organizing meeting of a local club! Yes, those were exciting times for chessplayers here, the likes of which we may never see again - and all this excitement was generated by one eccentric genius.
