 Sorry i accidently hit the submit key before i was finsihed, anyone back to
hyatt, what has he accomplished in computer chess, other than making a program
freely availabe to the public, and answering questions on RGCC, yet you would
think by the responses of people here that he was the world's best programmer,
he is just a little man with a huge ego. IF you want to mention some good
programmers than mention hzu and richard lang, ed shoeder, christopher theron,
amir ban, these guys have won something, yet they are too modest to stand out
like hyatt who has done nothing. OH i forgot the programmer of shredder.
