  Sorry then. Maybe it was Dan Homan, I'm not sure. Anyway, I don't to start a
"maybe it was x" and x responding "nope, it wasn't me" long thread :) so I'll
forget about.
  This memory of mine... if only I could put a couple mirrored hard disks in my
head, in case one of them crashed :)

  BTW, what's the reason, in your case, to use such a way of measuring eval? It
seems logical to me to set the 'one' (or 100) anywhere, so the eval could be
more easyly understood, though I guess you're already used to use the 64/pawn
units.
