Subject: breaking blocked positions

sometimes humans to get a draw against computers, block the position
leaving the computer wandering about aimlessly doing nothing.



why cannot the program tell the computer if nothing is happenning (ie 25 moves
have gone (1)without any captures (2) the score is virtually the same
(3)none of the computers pieces have gone over into the last 3 ranks and vice
versa)  then the computer should send over either a bishop, queen or rook into
the last 3 ranks if this can be done without losing more than a 1/3 pawn.


This should break open the position.
