Let's take your last statement above:
"He also has the right to doubt information coming from any other source
other than the deepblue team."
how _else_ would you take that? IE "Hyatt wrote an explanation about the DB
Jr machine in Paderborn, but if we don't hear this directly from the DB team
it ought to be discounted." is a pretty fair interpretation of what you wrote.
That isn't calling me a liar?
The deep blue 'issue' doesn't turn me into a 'raving maniac'. Statement such
as those by yourself, Amir, and others certainly has that effect however.
Because the statements are made in ignorance, not having one iota of an idea
of exactly what those guys have done. Yet they can be critized right and left,
even after doing something none of the rest of us has a prayer of doing any
time soon...
However, in some cases, _I_ am not the maniac...
