Subject: Proposal for a 3to1 time advantage

Give the computer one hour for the first 40 moves and one hour for the
remainder of the game.  Triple the time limits for the human player.
Fairness is a nonissue here.  The goal is to allow human players to
perform at the highest level.

I believe that the present FIDE policy of faster and faster games can
only lower the quality of chess.  We tend to forget the hard work and
detailed calculation behind a Frank Marshall brilliancy.  Incidentally, can
anyone tell me the time limits used in the Lasker-Marshall match?
