Thanks Günther.

What can I say?

Let me keep it short too:

I am happy that spin doctors like Frederic can cause hystery among many mass
media, they can write many articles themselves, but they can't fool everybody.
HAMBURGER ABENDBLATT is Boulevard. Why should Kramnik sue the Boulevard
journalism? Because if he let it stand like this, heindirectly agreed?:)

The point is not what Kramnik should do but more so what you should do while
you're reading such articles...! You can take something printed for the truth.
Or you could take it for a nasty insider uppercut / insinuation.   Or you think
for yourself.  For me it's very unlikely if not more that Kramnik did not have
the move on his board. That isn't the way he prepared himself, as a GM.
