"All There in Black and White"

http://www.usatoday.com/news/education/2011-01-23-chess_N.htm

Schools are implementing chess clubs at the elementary school level, for students as young as 2nd and 3rd graders as a way to teach critical thinking, confidence, and self esteem, which is more important than ever for nerds.

The programs are free since the kids’ lunch money was already collected by bullies.

In a nation of obese children, this now counts as gym class.

Sadly, the kids who are bad at chess end up selling their valuables at the pawn shop.
