I was expecting this variation from you because your program play that line very
well!

The reason why I stated that you had good chances to win is because your
program, as well as your team, is really good/strong!
I know everybody knows it, but still I think I should state it too!

I have a full respect of you and your team. I just wanted you to know it.

I hope you understand what I mean.

I wish you a wonderful 2004!
