They trying people's patience. I for one could give a hoot about the match. This
is NOT Deep Blue vs. Kasparov again. You have Kramnik who technically is World
Champion BUT Kasparov definitely is his master this year and he's been running
from him as well PLUS they using a chess hardware setup that is MUCH more
inferior in power & knowledge. "Braingames" , "Einstein Group" ... are these
names of these organizations supposed to have any allusions to cerebral prowess
... NOT!
