Hi:
What I know is that Dan Spracklen is working -or it was some months ago-
in a  non chessic proyect in Sierra.  I tried to contact him for an
interview in WCCR as I did with Bob, Chris and others programmers, even
with Martyn Bryant, author of Colossus, another leyend by his own, but
nothing happened. Respect Kathy, somebody told they were not married
anymore. If it's truth, it is sad: they were, toguether, a nice couple
and part of the legend of chess software. I too like very much Spracklen
programs and I still play from time to time with Par Excellence.
