Levy has written a lot of stuff about computer chess and I've read a fair amount of it. When it comes to programming, he's usually extremely vague. I wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't know how to program. I had a brief conversation with him at the 95 WMCCC and I remember he said something truly bizarre about how chess programs work, but I can't remember for the life of me what it was. -Tom
