That is one of the funniest pieces of baloney I have read in years.  I suppose
I have also delayed the cure of AIDS by several years, not to mention a cure
for cancer and the common cold.  Exactly how did _I_ hold anything back?

is hyperbole-hyperbole a word?  Because "exaggeration" by itself simply
falls far short of describing that comment.

Either I have really held computer chess back by 3-4 years, or your
credibility is shot to hades after making such a totally silly statement.
I am one person.  Out of _hundreds_ working on chess engines.  One person
can do all that?  :)

wow...

Either I am very, very good, or you are bonkers.

take your pick.
