Sorry Thorsten,

I think I can somehow relate to your approach here in a _very_ general sense,
but you just wrote nonsense in the analysis part.

After 1. e4 e6 2. d4 d5 3. a3 ?? black just wins a pawn for nothing.

Neither 1. d4 Nf6 2. f3 nor 1. d4 d5 2. Nc3 Nf6 3. f3 are in any way especially
dangerous for the black side, in fact the opposite is closer to the truth.

In case you meant to suggest that the Blackmar-Diemer gambit is a good opening
for _any_ top chessprogram playing the white pieces against one of its
competitors, I disagree again. When it is about this one I feel so strongly that
I would be willing to take a bet, given that I can prepare the black side.

So what is left? :)

Peter
