I enjoyed it just as much as you did (hopefully)... Great attacking
chess, starting at move 37.e4!!! The precarious juggling around its
seemingly vulnerable King Fritz executed faultlessly and then, kaboom,
exploited the white square weaknesses of Shredder.  Yet another proof
that 'stupid' programs can play divine chess, and that chess is above
all selective depth.  The deeper the search the closer a program is to
perfect play, it seems.  After all, chess is a finite game, isn't it?
Thank you for the fascinating game.
