>>>old paradigm programs have no idea how to evaluate chaos.

I'm wondering about this comment, which has cropped up in different forms a few
times in the last day or two.  Could you please explain why chaotic Chess should
necessarily be any better than stable or ordered Chess?  Some positions are
quiet whatever you do, and intentionally destabilising them for the sake of
creating a situation that conventional programs can't handle can easily
backfire, especially if your program is tactically weaker.

By the way, by your tone it seems that you believe others are incapable of
understanding your ideas.  Actually, I suspect they're pretty obvious to anyone;
people are just according them the skepticism that should be given to anything
that challenges conventional wisdom, and until you prove your case irrefutably
with real, consistent results, not just strong words and claims, you have no
hope of bringing the masses round to your view.

Mike.
