The argument(s) about comps using TB's and opening book's have heated up. It's
as if the question of "are comp programs better that super gm's" has been
answered and the humans are crying fould, excuse making yak yak yak.

The postings read like the future to me, (10 yrs from now ?) where a result
might read comp beats World champ in a (n) game match for the world
championship. Oh my oh my will the unfairness of the comp's program be cried.

Here is the issue! Can a human beat a machine at it's best. Not can a human beat
a machine with handicaps from its natural superior one's/zero's capability.
It's a machine, there is nothing unfair making the bloody monster behave at it's
best.

Let the Human GM's play it at it's best, probobly loose (future) and accept the
fact !
Thanks
Wayne
