I don't understand the logic, why should the human player get increments when Playing g/30. If computer are now stronger then the human GM's at G/30, its time for the Grandmaster to agree to play at standard time controls. It has been clear for some time now that only a very few and best grandmasters can play the best micro computer programs at fast time controls such as G/30 and below and have any hope of winning a match. Again nice job Ferret and Bruce, and its time for the Grandmaster to play "real chess"
