Many people think it'll be much higher % than it would be against other programs, so this would be a way to prove this right or wrong. I think Bob said he was going to run a similar experiment, and Crafty already counts the number of correct ponderings. Thanks for running this experiment, Ed. :) It's a good piece of data on the value of PB, which seems to be quite underestimated. Jeremiah
