I have a few MD friends who are not nerds who love chess. Some of my lawyer friends are candidate masters and they are not nerds. Most of my super-nerd friends with 160 to 180 IQs tell me that they don't have time to waste on games. I really think that Bill Gates would fit in the last category. He is in stark contrast to Gary Kasparov who has rugged good looks and an aggressive personality. Kasparov is not a nerd! You can also be a nerd and be not too smart. You then might play chess and go to concerts to appear as an intellectual. That is OK. We all have some use in this world.
