You see, this is exactly the main point of the debate. The ICGA oficials are
almost all (except Levy) are academics like Bob. So, for Bob it's kind of
strange how premature they behave. In such a case it's NOT usual that you come
from the outside and help out. No, you better let them dig their holes so deeply
that they are in real difficulties. Difficulties they are responsible for. You
know what I mean? They are so arrogant that they would NOW never admit that they
made mistakes. So let them continue. At this moment Bob alone can't change them
to the better.

IMO the whole problem will be solved through the new mode of internet
tournaments that are way better for computerchess. Nowadays it's a real
anachronism to spend a whole week with operating veritable chess pieces while
everybody is playing on the chess servers including the computers. I mean also
computerchess lovers have only one life to live!
