it had a book.  There is some sort of problem, as yet undetermined, that
caused it to behave strangely early in the game.  And it played a move that
I can't reproduce.  He was using "book random 0" which says search the
book moves and play the best one, yet it played a move that simply dropped
a pawn.

I am hoping that we don't have something serious...  but he will not be
using book random 0 for the rest of the games...  I have given him some
alterative settings that will at least give it a chance I hope...
