Dann,

  I move in a quote from John M:

>>Fun? Definitely.... especially when "The Web" makes two inaccuracies against
>>CM8000 and was down by 1.5 after less than 25 moves.... ;-)

>>But "meaningful"...? of course not.... That doesn't mean the marketing boys
>>won't have a field day with it if CM8000 wins, though....

  I once doubted you when you said The Web wouldn't play soundly. Well if you
want, I will send you 'shoe shine' money. It wasn't to hard for me to realize
your advice had merit.  Yes, play as "The Web" just for fun, I've no need for a
coronary when they blow it. Regards, BK
