You can not help what people think, but the fact remains Kramnik did not win the
match. So it is better to talk about facts, not speculation.  we can make little
progress other wise.

When people can prove the result was fixed, or that money is not a motivation
for Kramnik to win the match even when he claim we wants to win.

It is pointless to talk to people with such a mind set. As I begin the think I
must prove the we even exist to have this conversation.
