I hope you of the Chess Collective received and were energized by the ideas in the essay I shared with you today via e-mail. The tendency of chess groups to be intellectually stingy is not helpful to the individuals or the group. Share your knowledge with others. It is seed waiting to be fertilized and nurtured into new fruits.

Another group is talking about this as well:
"Why create chess communities?" at www.playchess.de and the blog there.
