What I wonder is it because these people with all their B.S. degrees never opened a chess book? Could this be the problem?

Yes.

Also, people have certain things that make sense to them, right.
Like chemistry makes sense to me, everything is all orderly and has a place and you can predict what is going to happen.
Chess is not like that for me.

NAh. I can take you to a park here in the city ( near where the former WTC stood) where people sitting on park benches all day with little education beat the pants off of Ivy leaguers and Wall Street types all day long... and they make a good buck doing it too.

Lost a lot of friends down there...RIP

A list of renowned mathematicians who were also not to shabby at Chess:

Most notably, perhaps, is Lasker, who did some pretty things with rings.
