Dear Larry: Of all people here that could, should or must critizise a note made half seriously and half not a long time ago, you are the one I did not expect to write such things. After all, you agreed with me that the laziness factor is important and that's the reason you was losing streght over the years, remember? after plasying computers. Because the take backs, the Pv line, etc. I told you that and you agreed. So, what is the weird thing to talk of a utopic program capable of forcing us a little bit to do things that we actually does not perform partly because they are scatered in different programs and partly because our lazyness or MY laziness? Let me give you an example. A couple of minutes before loging CCC and looking your post I just finished a game againts Crafty 15_18, the one in the microvision new database program. Well, after 55 moves we reached a dead position and so I got a draw -or Crafty got it- and you can believe it was an interesting game, full of tactical threats, etc. But in my lazyness I not even examined the game to learn something in the very same program made out for that!!! Neither I will load it in fritz to see his opinion. Or whatever. BUT if the program had done something more, like take my hand and say "hey, wait a little, let us see where you could win the game...." Larry, besides I do not know what kind of miracouslous thing we will have in just a couple of years. No more than 5 years ago I had a 486 and I thought it was the fastest thing in the world. No more than 10 years ago mi HD was 20 Mb and I wondered if I was going to fill it enterily some day... :-) You see, we can ask anything becasuse anything is possible. I forgot: I would ike tthat the incarnation of the program was a girl capable of some nudist show if you get the fulkl point. Why not? Just ask everything and something will be got. Fernando
