Here is one of the most important. We have a principal difference between human chessplayers and machines. Next. We have a principal difference between the generations of chess machines. I could already stop here, because from the above it is crystal clear that Dann Corbit's explanations are a vain attempt. Because normal distribution is for different individuals of the same organisms or "race". But - the different generations of chess machines are different organisms. Completely new "limbs" or "heads" are existing in newer generations. Hence you can't put them into the same population for a normal distribution. Chess strength in human chessplayers however is differentiated by degrees of strength between the weakest players to the best. But there is no principal difference as far as the organism is concerned. Period. Thank you. Rolf Tueschen
