I had stored that story _without_ Kasparov publicely accusing the DB team of cheating, neither asking them for the prints. I had memorized that he did that in "private". Perhaps you can understand my astonishment that R. Hyatt repeated his memory that went into the direction of a press conference directly after game two. Interesting that one special bit was a quote from a private talking that was surely not being made in public nor on a press conference. (I mean his expression, it played soo good and then it should have overlooked this..., as I said this was reported by F. Friedel.) The article in the NY Times is important because it made something public what probably had been kept in privacy by Kasparov until then. But don't misunderstand me as if I wanted to favor any side or version of history. So, if you had exact memory about a press conference after game two, where K. made these accusations, then please say so. Up to now nobody confirmed that.
