The ratings are specific to CM6000, but would approximate USCF to within 100 points, I would suspect. Remember that NO human vs. comp testing had been done before CM8000, so there was no "real world" data with which to come up with a base value for the personalities. As for the pairings, if either a) Lasker already played everybody with MORE points than Seirawan, or b) some of the players who had more points than Seirawan were not legal opponents due to color restrictions, then it may be that Seirawan was the highest-scoring legal opponent for Lasker. jm
