Subject: Programmers and their engines.

Author: José de Jesús García Ruvalcaba

	From all of what I have read here from chess programmers, it seems that many of
them feel identified with their respective engines.
	Some of them seem to look their program as a separate entity, always giving it
some human attributes. Other programmers simple seem to look at their program as
a part of themselves, they feel the same a human player feels when the engine is
playing.
	Why? Is it simply because they have spent countless hours working on computer
chess? Or has the program really evolved into a separate entity, or even merged
with the programmer?
José.
