One second per move, I see, was never a question. That would be great time for anyprogram to do almost anything decent. But I thought that one second per game meant much more than a second, as any move can take UP TO a second without being counted as anything at all, and ONE move is allowed one-to-two seconds. That is how things used to be, I think, if not now also. S.Taylor
