  i don't know mr. corbitt, it seems that a little common sense along with basic
observation and experience using cm8000 as oppose to cm60000 shows the former to
be much weaker. i don't think that i have seen a good cm8000 result since it has
been released. i have played many games against 6000 and have yet to win a
single game, i have already beaten 8000 twice and drew it once. i am not out to
defame the program author at all, i have always been a fan of cm . if i state
what i believe to be the truth, based on observation and experience, if this is
seen as a smear on someone's program , then so be it.
