You keep saying this nonsense about GM's using computers to analyze their moves.
 What is this all about?!  You think Fischer used a computer to determine if
what he thought was correct?  Hell no!  My guess is, he still doesn't.  Last
time I checked, programmers ask GM's if the moves are correct, not the GM's ask
the computers!

All these games that Eduard wins against these engines, you think they are
suggesting the moves he is making?  Once again, hell no!

I am going to believe a GM (especially a super-gm) over a computer, even after
the computer looks at it for 100 hours, and the GM looks at it for 1 minute.
Nunn, Anand, and Ashley have all said that Be4 is the correct move.  You're
going to have get a little more than Deep Fritz and Heinz to make the think
otherwise here.  Sorry.

And like I said when I posted it, argue with Anand, not me.  I understand Vince
is (and you might be too) a good chess player, but his arguement with Anand are
going to be short lived.
