So did everybody else except for a couple of games. In the 70's nobody could beat chess 4.x and then Belle. In the early 80's nobody could beat Cray Blitz. Then along came Deep Thought and the competition for first place ended. Whether you like it or not.. > >2. He fought for DT to get the Frieken award, thus his reputation > is on the line. Remember Forrest Gump? "Stupid is as stupid does"? I had zero input to the Fredkin committee. I had nothing to do with the prize. I had no contact with anybody dealing with the prize. I had no interest in seeing that they did or did not get the fredkin prize. Your remark is simply stupid. > >Best Regards, >Chris Carson > >Best Regards, >Chris Carson
