 What do you base that statement on ....Dave? Kasparov is on record as saying
 his next computer match would be for big money. Seems pretty logical to me.
 He has a big ego....obviously.....I doubt he gave much chance for DJ to make it
 as far in the tournament. Maybe my 50 years have mde me scenical, but it
 certainly is not out of the realm of reason. At best KC set it's self up for
 this type of conjecture by thier own incompentence.
