>SSDF,

Could you please explain what you understand under a campaign ?
I have not ordered pages in big-computer-chess magazines or whatever you
guess.
If you believe that posting my comments/opinion is a campaign, than of
course we botgh misunderstand because we have different definitions.
I do call opinion/comments OPINION and / or comments. If you call it
campaign than i understand why people believe that my ideas about mchess
are a campaign against it and my ideas about fritz are a campaign
against it and my ideas about cstal are a campaign for it and and and.
If anything I say is a campaign in your eyes I would advise you to use
the help of a psychiatrist.

> it is in my opinion a much better idea to congratulate Frans
>Morsch and the Chessbase team.

WHY ? This program is out on the market for many months and NOBODY
(despite Moritz or KK who often exaggerates with BEST soandso) thought
that it is strong. We all have it at home and nobody thought that FRITZ
would win Paris or nobody of us was afraid of fritz.
JUNIOR was the suprise and NIMZO was the surprise in the netherlands and
in paderborn and in austria. But NOT fritz.

Suddenly you have to congratulate them as if their program is something
NEW and something extremely strong ?? It isn't ! Or IMO it isn't.
Why should I congratulate Bob for pres. Kennedy ?? CLINTON is the latest
one. Kennedy is long time ago and I know people do like him and people
do not like him. But fritz5 is as old as kennedy !


>Enrique

A campaign is somthing complete different. A campaign is e.g. what some
people do in rgcc by calling other programmers soandso or asking for
cracks for commercial computerchess-software. THIS is a campaign.
My opinion is so unimportant, how could anybody call it a campaign. I do
not post it with my name, I do not claim that I am god not pope nor do I
say I am an expert. I do always say: I am only a hobby computer-chess
fan. And you call it a campaign ! WHY ?
