Hi!

I already wrote my message when my connection was broken. Now will be very
brief. This is position in 11 since you looked alread all 10 moves.

I went only first 8 moves and it took 1 hour 56 min. My branching was not that
good as your. It was very stable between 4 and 7 moves and was 9.5. Only between
7 and 8 it fell slightly to 8.3.

Will try today to read somewhat from your program description for fun. Yesterday
when I went to read few lines (it is not code but description that I am looking
for) I had the impression that it was written on other planet. Nothing in
commune! Nevertheless, very often I have the impression that our programs react
in similar way for similar positions.

Leonid.
