The uncertainty with Deep Blue II games is close to infinity.
We have no real idea (one way or another) to know the ELO within [for instance]
500 points.
It does appear to play excellent chess, however.

It is possible that there is some bug in the software that could be exploited
and eventually the ELO would drop to a small value.  I doubt it, but anything is
possible.

I think I have the dancing/fighting thing solved.  Tai-Bo.  Think about it.
