Hi Anthony,

again congratulation to you and Erdo for the very impressive and deserved
victory of WCCC 2005!

No, this is just a my idea. Stefan is working differently and more deeply on the
program.

As you know with those limited settings there is not much one can do.

Well, in my testing we are winning more than loosing...but maybe this setting
does not work against Zappa.

I will buy it when available and take a look to it and to its book.

Ciao
Sandro
