Two points:
1) So Amir intentiously is joking with his .00 but he wants to imply something
else of course and that is not honest. In real he doesn't say anything at all.
You are correct.
2) I would always be careful with different versions of such a program, Eduard.
It's nonsense to write, but here on my version Junior does this or that.
German:
1)Amir macht sich lustig mit seinem .00. In Wirklichkeit sagt er damit gar
nichts über die Position. Finde das alles sehr unehrlich.
2) Vorsicht bei versciedenen Versionen eines Pogrammes. Unsinn zu sagen bei mir
zeigt er das und das an.
