Bob, you missed the point, the argument itself isn't futile at all. I think the
majority (myself included) truly believes nowayds chess programs are clearly
superior to DB-97. Since nobody can proof himself being right, the thing doesn't
exist any longer, the wishful thinking starts.

I consider you as the last of the Mohicans, when are you going to give up, 2010,
2020, ever?

Please smile, for a moment I feel back in the good old days of 1996 and I won't
challenge you for another hysteric 1-100 game, I promise :)
