  This is all Empty speculation, you have not one shred of Proof to back up your
claims, then there is the deepblue kasparov match, The Van Wely Rebel Match,
Fritz at Dormund, Christiansen and Chestmaster..ect, ect,. ect.. it's like if
God came down to your face and told you shit stinks and you still won't believe
it.  I find it very amuzing that you, who is not even master strength can speak
for Kramnick about understanding his Art. Your dealing in Fantasy, speculation,
dreaming, come back to the real world and start dealing with facts. Shit
stinks!, Computers are Super GM Strength, it's not conjecture it's happening!!
