The last few years, Kasparov seems to have the following plan for computer
matches:

(1)  Play inconsistenly
(2)  Draw match
(3)  Collect money
(4)  Go home after yet another drawn match with money in pocket

I agree that Anand may be the best player to play one of these top beasts (like
Hydra) now.  What a complete shame that the top player now is not involved in
the reunification.  What a joke.
