Right. I am collecting DATA in the moment that PROOFS that the results
of the autoplayer are mysterious, indeed.
My fritz plays still bad. But the reason is clear, I don't have the
SPECIAL Fritz 5 .

Pah. I have an own opinion. I am not a friend of Ossi Weiner. I fought
against HIS opinion for years and whenever we meet us we have NICE
arguments about accuracy-chess contra speculative-chess.

Don't make my statements UNSOUND just because Ossi Weiner has similar
statments. That is not under my control.

Right. Very simple. Mr Malboro is asked: is smoking dangerous, and when
Mr Malboro comes back he will answer: sure smoking is NOT dangerous. And
we believe it.
Very simple indeed Dirk. :-)

The LINES (of Aufsess) ARE different from YOUR powerbooks. Wasn't this
EXACTLY Y O U R  O W N  point ??
And now you need evidence by asking another person ??
I don't see a logic into this. Isn't the data talking enough for itself
?

WHEN it is common practise of ChessBase to give an operator a SPECIAL
book, why shouldn't they do the same preaparations for ssdf -list ?

I don't know that he is away. I don't talk about this because i think he
is not there. I only laughed about what was said about Fritz-book in
Aufsess by Karsten.

To test book versions during tournaments ??!!??
Sorry, I have never changed book-versions during tournaments.
I don't know what you are talking about.
Sorry.

Sorry. I don't think so. You don't have ANY evidence ! You only BELIEVE
you have EVIDENCE , in fact much of what you call evidence is a
fata-morgana.
People rationalize many decisions they have made with feelings with
facts and logical explanations afterwards.
But this rationalizing only hides that we life in a world without
evidence.
Do you have evidence that your wife loves you ?
Do you have evidence that your children are yours ?
Do you have evidence that your GOD exists ?
Do you have evidence that you are your mothers son ?

Many many many things in our live are completely the opposite of
EVIDENCE and proof. And telling this in reality is maybe not very wise
(Because it is obvious) but not nonsense. Only materialist are unable to
understand this. THEY do still believe that there are facts and things
out there. You out yourself as such a materialist. :-)

In a normal talk with other people you run arround and measure FACTS and
DATA and proof while the others drink their beer and chat arround ?
You measure on your birthday while all others sit arround you ?
YOu really do this ?!? I cannot believe this. When I am on a party -
nobody really is interested in facts and measures them.
I don't see a reason why you claim you do so. I don't think you do.

The problem is not what fritz is playing and what MY fritz is also
playing. I think Kaare Danielsen said very good that the main point is:
WHAT is the SSDF-Fritz-book NOT playing what MY commercial fritz plays
!!
Because the one is a subgroup of the other you cannot proof anything
strange.

Kaare is right from my point of view.

I am in no business. I am only telling my opinion. There is no campaign
and no business. Although it is very funny.

a)
I would never play a KBNK-endgame against Mephisto machines like
Reckwitz did. I would never attack a person like Reckwitz did or was it
Ossi.

b)
Reckwitz is dead. Please let the people be dead without talking about
them negatively.

I find anything Ossi is doing very funny and I remember it very long and
can laugh after years. I will never forget how I told him that his
Genius will lose the game against CSTal. I knew he would lose

a) because we had so many games played in preparation for the 1995
championship
b) CSTal won with no matter which opening was chosen. THE ENGINE itself
was an anti-Genius killer engine, so Genius had no chance.

I remember very good how Ossi talked and what he said.
It still amuses me.

I have some happy hours !! Let me get my pleasure !! There are good
times where you can laugh and bad times where there is nothing to laugh.
In the moment I can still laugh !!

>But this will only work based on evidence (which you consider not so
>important),

EVIDENCE is a word Dirk.
I don't want to discuss with you about philosophy.
I have read and discussed a lot of times about WHAT IS REAL and how the
outer world works and how the brain INTERPRETS the outer world and and
and.
I have read all my philosophers and don't want to repeat the whole mess.
Evidence is a word dirk.
You believe it is a word that makes sense. I do believe people believing
Tarrasch like in those words only self-betray themselves and their
friends.
There is no evidence.


>nothing else...
>You are no BLOED-Zeitung or rainbow press journalist, and I can hardly
>imagine it will ever be your aim to turn into one... :-)

As I told you, when I am with my good friends, and we have a party,
nobody - and i hope you will also not do it - runs arround and measures
EVIDENCE.
or comes with facts and evidence, on paper and statistics while the
others want to chat.


>So let's just wait for the facts and interpret these instead of rumors.

I am interpreting !
Thats in fact all you can do. interpretation instead of proof. Opinions
instead of evidence.

Heavy reply ? I am not tueschen !! Also you maybe oversaw the :-)
smileys in my post. WHY ? I make them to show you that I laugh. Or
smile. And you await a heavy answer ?!?


>
>Then we will exchange arguments and smileys again as much as you wish...
>
>Yours Dirk

Right. Smileys and good feelings. But nobody runs arround and measures
or searches for evidence.
Tarrasch. I am surrounded by tarrasch-paranoids ! They all believe in
accuracy and BEST-moves and 100 % evidence !
Tarrasch, God, Frickenschmidts, all materialists.

How can Kirk beat Spock or the ship computer ??
How did he do this ?
If Spock or the Enterprise ship-computer is so good, why was Kirk able
to beat them ???!!! Because he used illogic emotional bluffs ??
Speculative 3D chess ?
