Subject: GUI SCANDAL ??

Hello all,
Can someone please explain what the GUI SCANDAL means?  I have been reading the
post and I would like to know what the effect is on the programs like Crafty.
It seems to me that if the hash tables were reset after each move then
"Pondering" would be ineffective.  I mean when I'm playing Crafty in the
Shredder 5 GUI and I make the exact move that Crafty is pondering, wouldn't this
kill the pondering and make Crafty start it's thinking over again.  Since Crafty
does not do this I wonder what the GUI SCANDAL really means.  How can I prove
that this "reset" is happening since it's not affecting the pondering function.
Jim
