Kasparov Kramnik you never know whats on topic or off with that. Posting computers analysis naturally on topic. "It's not over till it's over"...off topic but left running although the argument in it's favor is it will only be a short subject. Saying I can't log onto Kasparov chess to watch the game it appears based on posts here last week is off topic although again a short lived subject. An off topic thread such as this can go anywhere and I posted one example of probably thousands that could have been used. Sarah.
