Apparently neither Christophe Theron nor Dr. Hyatt (nor I and others, except
maybe Pavel) were aware of the lack of positional learning, but they don't own a
copy of the program AFAIK. You own a copy of Fritz, so who do you think there is
to blame? If it been known beforehand, then a _lot_ of controversy and useless
posts could have been avoided.

Sincerely,
