That's probably why my sister became a DA, in order to one up me on legalisms. ;) Well, both Junior and Deep Blue Jr. have been around for quite a while. Junior won the microcomputer championship in 1997. Deep Blue Jr. started touring in 1996 I think, but I cannot find any references to it before 1997. So, I guess someone who knows the history of these two programs better than I should speak up. KarinsDad :)
