Russel, I probably have missed other posts (which I know I didn't), and the
posts in those threads which actually relates to computerchess (hardly few, even
not directly).

All I see is biodata of a person, how many times his wife got married, what
happened in his divorce settlement, and how he saved lives and how his best
married his ex-wife, and he is still his best friend, and how his passwords were
stollen from his computer, and how is supposed to recieve a medal.
And how one group is working to prove he is nonsence and another group working
to prove he is right.

Truely related to computer chess.

It is true no one is relating him (John Dart, who is by the way programmer of
"Arasan", and a respective poster in this forum) to this discussion.
But he has the right to voice against this crap.
And it is also true, that the discussion on the face of the forum with more than
half of the posters lured to the discussion, hardly encouraging any form of
discussion relavent to computer chess.

Now don't come with
"them-being-european-not-wanting-to-have-CCtournament-in-N.America reason".


Now what the moderators wish to do about this crap should be interesting.
They don't make their own rules, they listen (or should) what the majority has
to say.

cheers,
pavs ;)
