Well put, Frank. Several people shouting for their favourite program doesn't solve anything or is relevant at all for the event. Actually, it's slightly moronic to critisize the selection process by maintaining that one particular program should be added to make everything fair. It doesn't quite work like that. And since it's not advertized as "Champion vs. Champion" or "Kramnik vs. Strongest program", but as an invitational with top programs, I see little reason to go on and on about the fairness of the arrangement. If it had been advertized like that then it would be a question of A, B or maybe C :-). Regards, Mogens
