Of course, we can have our "evergreen" game or our "inmortal" game or our
"wonderful" strategical game. This is not the point. The point is to claim a
theory based on bullet and rapid controls on a chess server.

The new Zappa runs on a machine of 4 CPUs and it is a lot different of the old
Zappa 1.0. The Match against  Ehlvest has been run in live not on a chess
server. The condidions are totally different. For Arturo Ochoa, the games are
not relevant to help the engines to fix holes.

The games of Restrepo are Ok for fun. Now, to claim that he beated eveything
useing those conditions is other thing and I cannot take him seriously.
