Subject: Deep Blue - The Conclusion of the Matter

Author: Matthew Hull

I've been following these DB threads for a long time now.  It appears to me that
there is a mental block for people east of the Atlantic that does not allow them
to accept some basic facts:

1.  Everything Hsu ever made (chess machines) was brilliant.
2.  Hsu's creations _slaughtered_ the computer competition...ALL OF THEM!
3.  Kasparove didn't watch what he was doing, and got his helmet handed to him
by DB2, plain and simple.

And you guys can't take it.  You cant' stand it.  You can't accept it.  Why?  I
can't figure it out.  Is it jealousy?  Envy?  Sub-concious anti-Americanism?
CONCIOUS anti-Americanism?  European ego-centrism?  European inferiority
complex?  Something in the water?  The air?  The food?  Religion?  EU mind
control?  WHAAAAAAT!!!!!!!

Most of you all seem like nice guys most of the time (excepting maybe Vincent
"aspergers" Diepeveen).  But when the topic of DEEP BLUE comes up, it's
get-out-the-knives time.

What have you to say for yourselves?
