Hi All: Does anyone remember the position, altered from one of Shirov's games, where he claimed that most (or maybe even all), of the chess programs couldn't find the mate in 16(?), because of a null move that ocurred part of the way in. I remember it was also in a Chess Life some years ago, but can't remember which issue - The funny thing about this is that most of the programs did find the mate easily, (I think Chess Master 5000 found it within 2 seconds), but that some needed more time than GM Shirov was willing to wait.
