My prediction is that Rybka -- ah, I mean IM Innes, will
prevail. Even Sam Sloan and his Damiano Attack cannot
hold up to the scrutiny of a nearly-an-IM, with an improved
rating of 3000+. I fear that human vs. human correspondence
chess is dead. Some will claim they only use computers to
"check for blunders", but I don't believe this is fair to those
who play unarmed.
