My argument is "I once mixed chemicals A and B and got this result... Someone else also mixed A and B and got the same thing. Someone else wrote a paper describing that when they didn't mix A and B, they had a problem but when they did mix them they got the same thing too." (this last was GreenBlatt in the Digital Press Journal in the paper describing the chess program he wrote). >You might make more friends if you stopped expecting people to believe you >simply because you're Bob Hyatt. If you don't want to believe me, feel free. I made a simple statement that was supported by my results and the results of others. If you choose to ignore those results, that is up to you. Being "Bob Hyatt" has nothing to do with it. I _know_ what goes on when this gets screwed up, based on personal experience in finding/fixing the problem. Vincent supposedly had the same problem. GreenBlatt, Slate/Atkin, Thompson, etc all used the same approach to solve the problem. > >I'm not going to post to this thread any more, because it's deviated far, far >away from hashing EP squares. > >-Tom I didn't take it there.
