I have made this statement before and I'll make it again. Until a computer beats
the World Champion in a 24 game match with each game going 2 1/2 hours for forty
moves as the first time control then 20 an hour for the rest of the game, I
wouldn't worry about it too much. If Kasparov had played his last match under
REAL match conditions the outcome may have been very different. I really hope
that one of these days a match like this can take place.

Regards,
Jeff
