How many years and computer generations ago was Aegon?  What you might want to
show me is how many masters or Even IMs could draw ANAND in a 40/2, beat the
lithuanian nat'l team, beat GM sherbakov, Draw 2593 Alexander Baburin, Be called
a GM strength by Larry Kaufman, all in a matter of a few months.  If you could
find one, there isn't a soul alive that would say he was lucky as opposed to GM
strength.
