Of course it is possible that the program has learnt from it's own experience,
or had it's weekly dose of latest GM games injected into it.

Your always playing a combinationation of programmer and program - the
programmer is usually responsible for the bad moves 8-)

I see no reason why humans shouldn't have access to opening texts and reference
material when playing a computer. Maybe it might help to get some more GM's
interested, as it might help expand theory.
