Dear oll:
This game against Tiger 11,5 is not and never was considered to be part of the
experiment. That will be against ferret. As I explained in the beginning of my
post, Ivan just wanted to play any program I choose as a kind of gift or
whatever you name it for all us and I chose Tiger because is strong, is new, is
from a friend and because, as wes say in this country,  so the Pope like it to
be. :-)
Mid septermber will be, I hope, the date for the real expriment.
