Subject: Would your program play...

Bxf7+?

[d]r1b1kb1r/pp1n1ppp/2p2n2/q7/P1BpP3/2N2N2/1P1B1PPP/R2QK2R w KQkq -

Looks like a really good move to play against a human, who misplayed and ended
up mated in a few moves.  Interestingly, black was 2 pieces up, but was
completely busted due to its exposed king.

Note also that some programs prefer to give up the queen as black, with a
positive eval for black (eg crafty), as in 10. Bxf7+ Kxf7 11. Ng5+ Qxg5!?  This
in fact may be black's best defense, can't tell.
