30 plies in that time is pretty fast.  I ran this on a P3/550, but even so I
only got 24 plies in two minutes.

I got +2.01 on Kc2, and then +2.21 on Kb1.

This one is hard because the pawns can move.

And to Peter, no, I don't have that position.  It was published either here on
on r.g.c.c., I think here, at least a year ago and probably longer.

If someone has CCC indexed, they might be able to find it if they look for posts
by me that contain "50" or "fifty".
