Quite complex research you've got. Mind blowing work you've done.

It's easy to do research when the computer does the work . I wrote a scientific paper, that's how I learned to do research with computers .

When I play often manage to see a checkmate in five moves in half a minute , but I often fail to see that I'm losing a piece in one move in half a minute .
