Truly, ALL of the World's computer chess programmers, from the very first one to
the very last chess programmer, should be congratulated.  In fact, the community
of chess programmers should be congratulated.  They have, collectively and
individually, produced a remarkable product!  I, personally, have greatly
benefitted from the efforts of all of them.  I sit here in front of my computer
almost every day and "have fun" playing with my chess software.  That would not
be possible without all of their efforts.

My congratulations, therefore, go to ALL computer chess programmers.
