Gordon:
My english is not so good to understand all the subtilities of your metaphor
with babbons and alphas, but just in case if I am a babooon in this field, I am
also an alpha in mine, spanish writting, where the money and some glory is. For
me at least.  My babooneness in chess computer, if it is so, cannot care me
less. It gives me not money, on the contrary: I am one of the babbons that
support the alphas and I do not care a shit. They get his money, I get my toys.
Fair trade IMO. And sometimes they organize something to get even more money,
but then I get even more fun. So, fair again. And perhaps a loved friend of
mine, with lot of common roots besides and beyond this insignificant field, is
attacked and yes, I take my gun and fire my baboonic bullets to defend him. Fair
trade, I guess. At the end of the trail nobody knows which you are going to find
and what is the right thing to do, so I do a simple and direct and evident
thing: I stay with my friends. It is, if you want, kind of latin value:
friendship first, the rest to hell.
