In Response To: BG in the WSJ (Daniel Murphy)

Nice synopsis. Although at first glance (and maybe subsequent ones) this has the typical pretentious feel to it, so did most of the publicity from two of the three backgammon growth periods of the most recent 100 years. (I'm talking about the surges beginning late 20's and mid-60's, 3rd being FIBS fueled internet BG popularity.) And if catalin tournament-size checker sales on Ebay are another indication, get your reservations in now.
