Hi Rolf,

You touch an interesting point...
When Kramnik appeared (Manila 92) I really liked him, even much time
before I thaught he was the only human being able to beat Kasparov in a match.
In 2000 it was comfirmed,
Is very feasible that if Kramnik wants, he can beat everyone including Kasparov,
but what I don't like is his insistency in He is the world Champion
according to the tradition of a lot of year and soa and so and so,
My opinion is: o.k. if he is peaceful now, no longer quest for succes and enjoy
chess, great! he has the right, but if he claims that he is the World Champion
his results must be better, and not just wait for someone willing to have a
match with him, I'm not saying that he is obligued to win every tournament he
plays , but as a world champion(as he call himself) his quality play must be
according to that, and not losing games in 20 moves.

Thank you Rolf for the comments
