I believe you checked these positions with Deep Fritz- if you let it search for
a short time before Qg4 you can see the line that made it go this way - that's a
simple draw ( same with Yace btw) but we don't disagree anyway and I liked your
analysis very much . I think it's fascinating that players of relatively low
strength ( compaired to Fisher , no offense at all) can tackle the analysis of
top GMs with computer aid, although the computers themselves can't do _all_ the
job yet. Fascinating - if they get even stronger they might really develop into
great teachers but so far they can't do this job on their own ( even in many
tactical positions).

Recently there has been quite a similar position posted by John Dart ( task: see
the win after ...Kxf5) - unsolvable by computers IMHO but easy for a middleclass
player with the _help_ of a computer.
