Prove what they could? I don't understand what you are talking about. I merely
gave two clear-cut examples of GMs (I wouldn't dream of calling them dumb as you
suggest) who played material they had not investigated thoroughly. Not even by a
far shot. You said such cases never occurred and I gave you two examples I know
of. Pretty simple, no?
Both the players mentioned I know quite well. I gave classes to Mecking for
several weeks (I have lots of pictures BTW), including specific software usage
training for the Olympiads, and was a business partner of Darcy.
BTW, why do you go about repeating my name 7 times in your short reply?
