The situation is obviously getting out of hand. Let me illustrate briefly: Thorsten, I hope you are joking (and even then, it is a very bad joke). >It >is completely obvious to me that Mr. Vidanovic is not the same person as >Rolf Tueschen. Neither the writing style nor the contents of Vidanovic's >postings even remotely resemble anything I have ever read by Tueschen. > >Tord Why should a Mr.Vidanovic remember an article of me from 1992 ? Why should he be able to read german ? To placate Mr. Czub and thus eventually help him regain his bearings: My name is Djordje Vidanovic and I teach Linguistics and Semantics at the Faculty of Philosophy, University of Nis, Serbia (part of the former Yugoslavia). I am not using my Uni e-mail address here, but my commercial ISP address. I am 47 years old, have a 22-year old daughter and a beautiful pet cat that does not play chess :-(. Just like you, I have several PCs at home and while away my precious spare time testing them, and generally playing the part of a 15-year old kid to the amazement of some people, particularly my beloved mother-in-law during her occasional visits. I happen to be able to read and write in several languages besides my native Serbian. It is rather curious that I am also able to read German, it being one of the world's rather obscure languages, isn't it? It just so happened that I have been involved with computer chess in very many ways and that I was subscribed to several computer chess mags in different languages for a time (I even own most of the 'abhorrent' CSS issues, starting with issue 1). Generally speaking, I believe that your analytic contribution to computer chess has been substantial, but that you tend to be not only outspoken at times, but too bigoted and narrow-minded. My opinion, apparently shared by a few here, is that you have recently gone to unacceptable extremes much to the dismay of this quite informative and democratic forum. Kind regards, Djordje.
