In the stoneages of CC, e.g. in case of the Wch in Jakarta David Levy and
Frederic Friedel talked it all over by secret (!) email exchange, yes, I think
these two are the ideologists. So, all of you who have some engines running
under CB gui, could well give their choice  and this couldn't be misunderstood.
In the meantime many of you are married and have children. This could become a
bit expensive with the flights to America, India or Japan.  So, as always the
whole question boils down to the main question of _real_ descent of the majority
of programmers. It's not that it isn't a question of money too, but in America
you can't find inverstors with cultural conditioning, it goes after real economy
and US-Americans show no interest in chess. This is why Bobby (who?) is already
almost forgotten in the USA. Seirawan: GM today have their lowest status in
history. He must be talking about his homeland.
