I would have to agree with you. In the world championship, almost
all games I played vs top professionals were basically already decided
out of book.

The only exception was the game vs Shredder, which only hightened
my respect for SMK.

Maybe Uri is right that with his ideas he can do well as far as the
book is concerned. But then again, it's a big difference between
spewing out ideas and proving that they work in practise. You can
come up with a lot of ideas that sound good, but in practise, they
seldom work.
