I have posted my data. Now post your percentages for the moves played in the
opening and all other possible moves it could play with the pecentages. If I am
wrong about the pattern of low percentage moves being played. Show me by posting
your numbers. I have already done so. That would be a quick way to take care of
this question. If Thorsten does not wish to do this. I invite anyone else to
post their numbers from power book.
