But quite frankly I'm a little bored with all this talk. I would think any strong human desirous of building an anti-computer repetoire would take an interest in this as a starting point for investigation purposes at the very least. It's the whole point of this thread -- opening choices against strong computers. Notice the paucity of double-king-pawn openings in the list. GMs and IMs that play computers with any frequency know better than GM Adams, who plays machines very seldom it would seem. It also seems obvious that Robin does not play them much either, else he would not have said what he said. IMHO, of course. :)
