  Bob,

  In Telepath (bitboard), I matched the ordering from NoonianChess
(nonbitboard). While this allowed some code reuse, it was somewhat confusing.

   The pattern was A1=0, H1=7, A2=8, H2=15 .......

 In hind sight, It may have been better to use A1=7, H1=0, A2=15, H2=8.

   Think of each system and how mentally easy or hard it is to calculate
   diagonals. The reason I say "mentally easy" is you have to use your own
   brain to debug as you well know.
