That's the point. You have somehow "bonded" with gambit tiger. And taken it to be a part of yourself, or yourself to be a part of it. Nothing wrong with having a favorite program. But don't try to cast it in a god-like (new paradigm) light. Or else have a long discussion with Christophe, perhaps he will tell you _exactly_ what he changed in the eval, what he added to it, so that you can make an informed judgement about the program, rather than wild speculation about what you "want" the changes to be.
