Thorsten, I order you: there is no new paradigm. It is a buzz-word. There is no
chaos. All can be measured. Accurate. Everything is known already. There are no
new ideas. You are mad. I am mad. We are losers. We cannot be allowed to win.
Fritz is very strong. Fritz with 8 processors is very stronger.
Bigger-faster-more. Don't you understand? Why can't you understand? Are you
blind? Can you not see? Please see. Please. I can prove it. With results. See
10-9. See 45%. See 2600 ELO. Do you understand now? Look here is a list. We have
lists of numbers. Why don't you understand? King safety is +3. You are stupid.
Drive into the fog and crash in twenty car pile up. See what happens to you.
