Bob as you know we are both prone to "strong statements":)

If you read my posts, you know I think only a few ten's of people in the world
can best a top computer in a match. But if a active CCC member thinks he can do
it, bring it on.

Everytime someone claims they can best a top computer here on CCC, I try to play
them, but so far no takers.;)
