In the past Chrilly has sent email to Bruce & Bob with a picture of a dead
american soldier, with the caption "the only good GI is a dead GI" (or something
to that effect).  As an American that is fairly offensive, even though I
personally did not (and do not) agree with the war/occupation of Iraq.

The FPGA work is interesting; I did some FPGA research in college and they can
be quite powerful.  The biggest problem with the FPGA cards is that they can't
use the hash table (and other move ordering info) in the lowest few ply.  I seem
to remember reading the paper on Deep Blue, which stated they had only about a
12x speedup on 24 procs, and I suspect a lot of that was due to the above
issues.
