Subject: Recapture Extension

Some time ago we talked about the recapture extension. Bob's experiments with
Crafty seemed to show that recapture extension was a bad idea at least for his
program.

How many people have the recapture extension because they positively believe
that it is better for their program, and how many has removed it from their
program because the positively believe that it is bad for their program?

I am sure a lot of people have it or don't have it, but for no specific reason,
that is, they have not tested the effect of this extension thoroughly.
