Mr. Hall,

Money is an exchange for services rendered.   You have probably noticed that
Marty Hirsch and Johan de Koning and other professional chess programmers never
post at CCC.  It is because of dumb posts and people who can't think for
themselves.   In any case they don't get any money for it.  Next time you want a
good criminal defense lawyer just think about paying him $200.00 to $1000.00 per
hour for any work done for you.  When you go to the emergency room and get a
bill for $150.00 from the doctor that spent five minutes looking at your eye
after you got sand in it  then think about the programmer who spent over two
thousand hours painstakingly writing and debugging and testing his chess
program.
