Feb-16-04    Benjamin Lau: Wasn't he the world junior chess champion at one point? Jul-18-04    nikolaas: He was indeed. In 1967. Jun-08-05    trumbull0042: He programmed one of the Saitek tabletop chess computers, called, strangely enough, the Kasparov Trainer. Garry endorsed it and wrote a preface in the instruction booklet, but I doubt he had anything else to do with it. Jul-30-06    BIDMONFA: Julio P Kaplan KAPLAN, Julio P. http://www.bidmonfa.com/kaplan_juli... _ Oct-26-06    Caissanist: Kaplan was a friend of my Artificial Intelligence (AI) professor in college, and one day he came to lecture about the technical details of his programming for Saitek. It was pretty interesting, but it had nothing whatsoever to do with AI. He had the effect of reinforcing my belief that AI is a crock.
