This is one of the emails in the thread you are referring to, what happened is
Moritz Berger felt that Vincent Diepeveen was attacking his "Best Buddy"
Schroeder in another thread about Rebel's Killer Books and he did not like that!

No I do not think Mr. Diepeveen's post should have been destroyed by the
Censors!

In fact several Club Members and I concurred with the above statement and stated
this in the Thread.

I think I would like to understand where you are going with all of this,
Vincent.  I'm confused because whenever I see threads like this my brain swells
up and I can't understand or remember anything.

You think Rebel is tuned against various things?

You think Fritz is tuned against various things?

It seems obvious that some programs are tuned against some other programs, for
instance MChess has had a special book for a really long time, so it's not
unprecedented for things to be tuned against other things.

Do you think someone has acted improperly here, and if so, how can we discuss it
in such a way that it doesn't degrade into a huge shrieking match?

Is this just a new round of the old killer book discussion or is there more to
this?
