That's absolutely correct! But was that the question?

Uri, the question was this: if when the progs couldn't find a clear win, if then
Kasparov also couldn't find a win or if that could be difficult for him. I said
that there were no connection! What comps can't find means nothing because their
knowledge is so minute and such a position is a question of long range
reflections. But please, do not expect ME to provide such GM reflections.
