That thought crossed my mind as well. The end of a winning streak when joining
the dark side of the force. It would be cool if the moves were announced by
James Earl Jones with Shredder 5.32. Not that Karpov is bad, he's just a tad on
the slow side. I'm checkmated before he's finished saying: "(silence for a
while) Pawn! c7 c5".
