Boycot is ok, but more efficient would be to go to the site, click on "feedback" and tell their business jackos that they made a horrible mistake. People who love computer chess have a serious and valuable interest in chess - they are important visitors for such a web site, they have money, they read the banners, etc. Kasparovchess.com coldly decided that Deep Junior should be kicked out of the tournament and deprived the world of a wonderful computer chess event. Lets go there and lets write that we are disappointed and angry and want to see Deep Junior playing. Computer Chess and its fans also have a weight and a meaning, not only human chess.
