Subject: Petulant- A good description of most GMs

Go up one level in this thread

Petulant: Unreasonably ill-tempered or irritable, peevish.

It seems that distrust and fear of losing face is a real nasty problem with most
GMs.  To hell with the GMs, man the torpedoes and lets' just enjoy the
inevitable progress that we see in computer chess.

Of course, you know that computer chess programmers can be petulant too.


Xie Jun is probably a nice person but she is acting like a spoiled-rotten brat
in this contest.  Amir and Shay have been entirely reasonable.  The duplicity of
the Kasparov Chess center is disappointing--I expect more from the truly great
Russian Kasparov.

Duplicity:  Deliberate deceptiveness in behavior and/or speech.  Double dealing.
