Subject: An idea for the match against kramnik

I suggest the sponsors the following idea:

Kramnik will get no information about the program that he is going to play
against(he is not going even to know if he plays against DeepFritz,Deep
Shredder,Deep Junior,Ferret,Gambittiger, Dark thought,Crafty  or maybe Deeper
blue).
He is only going to know the fact that he is playing against a chess program.

If kramnik cannot win the match then he is going to get a revenge match against
the same program at the conditions that he wants(he get a copy of the program
that he is going to play).

I guess that kramnik is going to agree to this idea if enough money is involved.
He should get more money for winning the first match when the program is unknown
but also a lot of money if he wins only the second match and the same money that
is suggested to him today for participating if he is losing the 2 matches.
