Confusion!
1) It was Chess 4.0 so they played the program in 1974
2) They didn't won but took second place
3) My main point wasn't that but the little trick they
   implemented 1974. I found it similar to the razoring trick.
4) The clock was 3 in the morning and I had "forgotten" to go to bed.
   The same happened the night before. Shouldn't do that in my age!
