The difference between "Heinz" and you seems to be that "Heinz" does not take anything for granted unless sufficiently proven, whereas you, "Diepeveen", hold your personal convictions as divine truths which you feel enlightened to spread like a crusader. My reply to your garbage above is simply as follows. 1. I never said that knowledge does not work. Actually, I have always supported a balanced "fast and smart" approach. At the same time, I do neither believe in knowledge as the one and only solution to all open challenges in computer chess. 2. Although you are obviously unable to grasp and remember what I have already told you about my own chess playing, here we go again: I no longer play competitive chess becasue I deem it far too time consuming; yet, my last OTB rating was around 100 Ingo (the then German rating system) which translates to more than 2000 ELO if I am not mistaken. So much about your stupid claim of rating 2254 points higher ... Do I need to say more about your other claims? =Ernst=
