I have seen so many games from Eduard, different opposites, different time
levels, different openings (he even asked people to give him an opening where he
should beat a program, and he did).
So what's the use of saying: this move isn't reproducable under different time
controls? Eduard plays better in tournament levels too. I suggest to all people
who don't believe this reading his articles in ChessBits. He showed a system
against sicilian (which works against 1. e4 e5 too) which works at all levels
against nearly all programs.

You can't avoid everything by a good book. You can't have 1. e4 c5 2. e5, 1.e4
c5 2. Nc3 Nc6 3. a3 e6. 4. d3,...
If you improve the book humans will find weaknesses which work for this book.
