Hello Albert Silver


 I set my hiarcs6 on monitor mode in hopes of finding the times and depth that
hiarcs used to make moves 18.ne2 and 21. Arc1. Strangely on move 18 after about
a minute I see that hiarcs considers it in the info window below the move list,
but it never adopts the move in it's main line. Maybe it decided to move at the
exact moment that the computer considered ne2. As for 21. ARC1 My hiarcs did not
even consider the move , altlhough i must admit I let it think for only five
minutes.  It's beyond my understanding, I certainly did not fabricate the
moves!!! I notice I wasn't able to reproduce some moves in the hiarcs deen
hergott match. It may be for the same reasons (whatever they are) that I cannot
produce a move made by my own hiarcs!!. ON move 18. My hiarcs considered 18.a3
for the longest time!! I think that would have been much better the the move it
actually played 18.Ne2   As to your comments about Anti-computer positions, I
think rebel 9 would have handled the position much, much better as I had rebel
analyze the game and it came up with much better moves. This game shows that
hiarcs is not the positional master people claim that it is, I think that title
belongs exclusively to Rebel
