Well everyone, i did the best i could to get a rematch between Shredder and Hydra. I sent Stefan Meyer-Kahlen an email about such a rematch and he returned a reply saying "I would happily play such a match"___:) However, i recieved the reply from Hydra, i don't know who, it wasn't signed, saying "We are not interested in playing against computer programs anymore, because there is no one that can challenge Hydra",____I even sent emails to IBM, trying to get a reply, but i never got one, also emails to the N.Y.Times, Boston Globe, Etc., thinking they would know someone high up at IBM and want them to answer the challenge from Hydra !__but i never recieved a reply. I still believe that Shredder is the strongest PC program today and the only one than can "challenge", Hydra, but the only way to make this happen would be for the chess community to flood Hydra with emails asking for the rematch, or for someone to put up some dollars,___I don't see that happening, so___ Best regards, earl
