I have a general question. Is it safe anyway to generate (big) books with
Arena? I thought I have read somewhere such 'crappy' lines are 'created'
by a faulty book making process and don't have to be exclusively an error
of the book maker himself?
(I have seen incredible bad lines already in the past, when the book maker
said he never had added that line, nor it was in the used database at all?)
IIRC I have read about some flaws in book making in Arena which will be fixed
in future Arena versions, or am I plain wrong?

P.S. Please don't involve me in this holy book war, I am just trying to
offer some light and logic for this thread ;)
