  Nonsense.  Rybka defeated the GetClub program
while giving it Knight odds; let's see Zebediah do
*that*, without any computer help.

  Bobby Fischer once bragged that he could give
any woman in the world QN-odds, but when push
came to shove, he chickened out-- never once
backing up his idle boast!

  Obviously, in a sharp game, Rybka -- or any of
the other top-rated programs, for that matter --
could win in under 34 moves.  In duller games, it
will take longer, but the im****tant thing is not
quickly you win, but just winning.

  One aspect of play at GetClub is the fact that
the human opponents do not have any set time
limit.  This is a huge disadvantage to the program,
which is "strictly" limited after all the hullabaloo
over it taking too long to move and not following
its own declared limits.  Under these conditions,
you will find that humans play better than they
would under a strict time limit.  It also gives a
computer operator plenty of leeway to eat
potato chips and watch TV, while relaying the
moves between programs-- a plan which works
best at the slower time controls, say... Master
level.
