10 points to anyone who can tell me where that line is from before Chris Conkie does.

Or should it be '2' points? Or maybe '6'?
Right This Way is a Broadway production that opened at the 46th Street Theatre on January 5, 1938 and ran for fifteen performances. It was categorized as an original musical comedy and was set in Paris and Boston. A song titled "I'll Be Seeing You" that was featured in the production was written by Irving Kahal & Sammy Fain. Frank Sinatra sang the song and included it on the album "Point Of No Return" (1962). The song was also revived for the 2004 film, "The Notebook".

It's from the TV show "The Prisoner". An awesome show!! And 2 refers to Number 2 and 6 to Number 6 (played by Patrick McGoohan)...

Pity.

For me the system where the "endless clone discussion" was put in Engine origins forum, but infrequent release announcements and analysis were tolerated in "General Topics" was perfect solution. Forum was open for discussion, but the solution avoided situation where >50% of posts in "General topics" were clone flamewars.

I ask company behind Talkchess.com to reconsider their solution. I hate cloning and have been personally convinced so far that Ippolit is a clone of Rybka, but as a writer of open source program and supporter of the right to free speech, I WILL NOT STAY ON THE FORUM WHICH IS DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY UNDER CONTROL OF MONOPOLIZING CHESS COMPANY AND LEADING CHESS ENGINE AUTHOR.

So I really ask the company behind this forum to reconsider. Don't you understand that with your decision THIS FORUM IS DOOMED TO DEATH.

P.S. Sorry for yelling, you just made me very angry :evil: :evil: :evil:
