Now it looks like Kasparov was only an average champion who climbs right down like every one else, and now there are no more dreams anymore, just simple Kramnik and his freinds who are on a level very close to him. Or what? Is Kramnik much much better than a year or two ago? It looked like Kasparov didn't feel like fighting, and he always wanted Kramnik to take over from him, as he often predicted would happen. Maybe Kasparov wasn't the most fitting opponent for Deeper blue, either. S.Taylor
