	Ok, I am not accusing Kasparow of cheating; I was not in NY during the match
and I have no direct evidence of anything. What follows is speculation on my
part.
	I think it is posible that Kasparow was "convinced" to lose the match by a huge
amount of underwater money offered by IBM (much much bigger than the prize fund
for the match). As all the attempts to explain Kasparow's defeat seem to fail,
this one comes to my mind.
