Thank you very much Pierre,

You know--this would be a good way to punish criminals who also play chess.  I
am sure that Joan Fluvia Poyatos felt incarcerated while being flogged by the
machines.  I was surprised to see Chessmaster 3000 and 4000 do so well on fast
computers.  I own both of these and they give me a run for my money on a "slow"
PII 333Mhz.

Hmm?  Death by computer chess simuls.  It could happen to an older chess player.
Perhaps tournament directors should have all human participants sign a waiver to
release the computers and their operaters from all liability.
