Okay, I think we all know your opinion now. I think if you carry on with this much longer this should be considered a personal attack. If you don't believe Eduard and Kurt, that's fine. If you want to state your opinion that you don't believe them, fine. If you want to call them liars because, in your expert opinion, you think it's impossible, that's not fine, because it is based upon your opinion and not facts. If you have factual evidence that they lied or cheated, make it public along with your accusations. Otherwise, it would be a good idea to stop showing your ignorance of the subject. You (and Kasparov) can't seem to understand that chess against humans and chess against computers are different things. The things that Kasparov excels at are dominating against human opponents, but not very effective against computers, so it is not a suprise that a person rated much lower that understands what works against computers will have better success against computers.
