Hi CCC, Hi Tina!

A small success to report! My little Anti-Borg V1.BK, just 5 short lines, does
seem to function more or less as I intended when I give the computer Black.
Score 0-1 for the Collective! Well not exactly, Tiger would have to win a game
as Black for that but it is a start. Who wants to do a beta-test against Fritz?
(I don't have Fritz). Any takers?
