How often will a top program improve it's move choice between the thought time of 1.6 mins and 4.8 mins? Consider that only one move choice improvement will sway the entire game. Doesn't matter, The prettiness & clarity of the presentation is too good to quibble. Well done Enrique & Frederic, Tina Long
