I have given up my hope that he comes back into chess-scene.

The first day I saw Ossi Weiner buy Mchess/Nimzo98/Shredder2
contracts, i knew: richard is out, ossi needs new horses !!!

Anybody said: nono. Richard works on the 32-bit engine.

I wonder for how many years he works on it :-))

Shit. Shit nullmove ! The nullmove killed Richards search.

Will he ever return ? The return of the jedi ?!
