Subject: A quick look at Terra 2.5

I do mean a quick one...
These are bletcherous blitz games.
There is some sort of problem where Terra occasionally fails to start, or sits
there hogging the CPU and never makes a turn.  For each of the examples below
where there are less than ten games, that is what happened.

I really like the way that Terra plays.  Lots of wild and crazy openings.  Plays
1. a3 often.  This data is so crappy that it can only give you a wild idea of
how strong Terra might be.  But Terra has definitely got some spunk.
