SSDF Calibration Human vs Computer = 318 games
Carson list Human vs Computer      = 211 games

Total                              = 529 games

Pleenty of games, plenty of GM norms.  Statistically significant and a very
powerful study.

Play matches and tournaments in public against the top programs on top hardware
as these games were.

If you will notice, the programs can be beaten, but not consistently and they
are consistently winning matches against the top GM's.  The programs win a lot
more than they loose.

If yhou win a game, enjoy it, the program will win more though.
