Computers don't really "plan" by any definition of the word, unless you
take a twisted definition of the word where they "plan to win all your
material and then mate you."  :)

I don't know of anybody that has two totally different kind of searches,
one for pondering and one for normal searching.  I really don't see the
reason for not using your normal search, unless you don't trust it. Then
that ought to be fixed...
