From the mega-thread below, I percieve that there is one other way to do move
ordering that is commonly tried: an estimate of the score.
So... How does one arrive at this estimate -- have an alpha/beta/gamma where
gamma is returned by the function?
Is there any method besides:
1. Node counts/time spent
2. Estimate of goodness {with a magical incantation to achieve it}

OK, on the 1st pass thingy -- GCP's response shows me how silly I was even to
ask.
