I agree that was not very thoughtful of me and i apologize, i realize that a lot
of hard work goes into cotumizing books on both yours and Boris account.

Junior 7 used a book i compiled from 2600.pgn and Fritz 7 used Fritz7.ctg.

I must admit that i did not know that Fritz7.ctg was infact a handtuned book by
you i apologize for my ignorance.

Everybody reading this should disregard my statements including the two books in
question.

Regards
Jonas
