Sure, it's hard to know how many FLOPS are needed to simulated the human cortex. And is he using 1% of his cortex for chess, again hard to tell. Other tasks like language use non-trivial proportions of the cortex so it seems likely to me that a pro chess player would use at least 1% of his cortex.
My point is really just this: If I do some basic numbers with reasonable sounding values I get the computation that Kasparov's brain uses to be 100x higher than Deep Blue. You're claiming that it's the other way around, but I haven't seen any argument as to why this is the case yet.
