Subject: New program to Download: Moron 1,0

People of the maths and comp. departments of an important university in my
country are developing a chess program that they want to be based entirely in a
kind of human algorithm, more or less in the path suggested with lot of words
and few facts -so far as it is known- by Botvinnik. And this people, knowing my
old relation with this field and being pal of one of those guys from times in
the college, asked me to be the source of his human-recognition-pattern for
playing chess.
The result of his endeavor has been named, as a token of modesty, Moron 1,0. The
features of this new, revolutionary program based in my knowledge and
recognition pattern are the following:
Opening:
a) The program knows by name something like two dozen famous openings and know
the first 5 or 6 moves for each side of around half a dozen. And it does not
understand a shit of any.
b) He always gets to be pathetically cramped or almost lost at the end of this
phase of the game
c) Every novelty he find in the opening  is a instructive example of mistakes
known since 1845.

Middle game:
a) Moron 1,0 has a perfect understanding of forks as much he fall in almost
every one available for the oposition.
b) He knows the value of preserving bishops and scarcely  move his queen bishop
until the end of the game.
c) He performs deep calculations  always refuted by an alternative move in ply
two that he missed completely.
d) He knows he must not put his Queen in unnecessary danger and to do so is all
the time in safety  hiding behind an isolated pawn.
e)  Very enterprising with his knights, although sometimes the goes “one square
too far” and are lost to a simple pawn. Then  he comments: “positional
sacrifice”

Endings:
a) Moron knows everything about pawn races, so yours go very fast from the board
to the box.
b) King oposition: What?
C) square rule: I beg you pardon?
d) sharp activation of he King: from being static all the time, if he ever gets
there he put his hands up and surrender.

Anybody interested in downloading it?
