I was not talking about kasparov game but about the game of deep thought 2
against cray blitz.
It began as a discussion about kasparov DB but after bruce posted the game of
deep thought2 against cray blitz it became a discussion about singular
extensions in this game

Robert Hyatt claimed that they saw something 20 plies before cray blitz because
of singular extensions and I do not think that this is the case.
