Also, a google search (on groups) finds some interesting posts:

Especially the message from Richard A. Fowell I can remember. At that time, I
already had a chess engine (totally private). I had no contact to any computer
chess scene. But what Richard wrote:

---
Certainly, Shirov put his foot in it when he said that computers wouldn't
find the forced mate in:

6r1/2rp1kpp/2qQp3/p3Pp1P/1pP2P2/1P2KP2/P5R1/6R1 w - - id "Shirov 1"; bm Rxg7;
---

somehow impressed me (and also the solution time of his engine - MacChess). This
is the earliest time that I can remember, when I read about cbess engines in a
newsgroup. I did not know about Fora at all then.

Regards,
Dieter
