He learned it through his cooperation with Kasparov. <ggg> Even Fred can't write under his _real_ name because the crowd would be running wild. The reason: the CSS team is NOT - as always pretended - a neutral instrument to keep PEACE as such but the team is controlling that ChessBase (& CSS journal) get a "good" press. If someone like you writes about things that could be negative for one of the two institution, in the case of your critic of WM-Test it's the CSS-journal, at that moment anonymous artillery is initiated. I could exactly show you where someone wrote such a message against you. "genie schlägt zurück" was just the last example. What is interesting at the moment that a) the main test author Gurevich does only address his partner Meiler. b) Meiler does present arguments which have nothing to do with your topic. Until now he has NOT corrected the false insinuation of what you SHOULD have written, but in reality NEVER did. That is a match in despair with everything allowed because these main persons of WM-Test do know for sure that their test is now detected as full of flaws. c) M. Scheidl is trying to re-define the importance of your critic. But he will never be able to oppose the status of a Ed Schröder or Robert Hyatt. Both have commented on such positional positions of such a WM-Test. Nothing, nothing reasonable is in such positions. Hyatt brought it to the point: Death verdict against "WM-Test" - if someone would claim that he can find a differentiation of 2550 or 2600 then, Bob said, forget it. You can well say if a program is 2200 or 2600! But this is the maximal possible. Of course now they are running wild. See what Scheidl already wrote. Wait what Gurevich will say. Perhaps he will leave Germany and or chess... :) So my verdict is this: CSS is supporting and pushing a test without _any_ validity just to keep the members and testers "busy". It's a motivation trick, nothing else. Beschäftigungstherapie. Perhaps the next item of CSS PR will be a tour like the CAMEL trophy, where "WM" testers must walk through the jungle and they must test a position of the WM-Test behind the next tree. Then they must swim through a sea. You see, I were the right person to lead sessions of brain-storming to invent funny ideas... BTW also for the next WCCCC it were important if the programmers should participate in all kind of activities. Beer-drinking to begin with. Computerchess will become a secondary activity. [...] No, you're not the only one over there, but you are the only one who's still believing that science or the truth, rationality and logic have a value of their own in CSS and its forum! There is only one rationality that counts and that is... You mentioned it in one of your earlier messages. Richard Sorge was nothing against you!!! ;)
