Was wondering if that would get a rise out of you. :) I think we played three games that day, and you won the other two. The position has some endgame or promotion attributes that cause a good variety of move choices among the repondents, at least initially. I tried to figure out why my prog was taking so long, but wasted several hours on the effort and came up empty. And now I see that yours is similar to mine; so this is one I'll just forget about. Except for the fact that it's a draw! That I have to deal with. Will
