Enrique,

you are always picking on Nimzo, although it is a great and wonderful
program. You'll have to face it: After 17 years of computer chess, you
are wrong for the first time! Watch out for the next Swedish rating list
and then apologize!

Andreas

P.S.: Enrique blamed me for being too soft and gentle when it comes to
discussions about computer chess. I hope he now changes his mind! :-)
