A "midlife crisis" and how it is being used in psychology does NOT mean that
someone becomes depressive. Not at all. And why should Stefan become depressive
with his multiple titles? So, Ed is right.

But you are also right. Stefan is certainly in a midlife crisis because he began
to "womanize" in a foreign field, namely that of FRC960 chess. And he was
rejected! (=> Mainz 2005)

So he returned to classical 518chess and was in trouble, because his head wasn't
clear and his program wasn't well enough prepared!

Moral: the World Champion in 518chess shouldn't lose his energy in foreign
fields. As the Germans say: Schuster (=Stefan), bleib bei deinem Leisten!

Stefan should have befriended Reinhard and all would be ok again. Or also this
one: only because SHREDDER is Champion, Stefan shouldn't believe that he (Stefan
himself) now is the center of the Universe in Chess.
