Thats nuts, for lots of positions computers just can't evaluate quite right, and
think they are worse (or better) and then a few moves later the evaluation
drasticly changes.  1.0 is nothing, heck, even -3 is nothing.  For example in
the ICC CCT, Little Goliath against Shredder 3, LG was evaluating the position
as +3 for most of the game, then Shredder got counterplay, and LG went to -3,
and the game evenutally was drawn.
