When I deleted that thread it was due to a complaint that he was attacking
Chessbase/Fritz.

More recently he started a thread stating Fritz had compied code from Fruit,
which is rediculous because he would need the source code to prove it.

Hindsight is 20-20.. Chris is simply attacking Chessbase/Fruit which is our
charter. End of story.

When the next round of elections are held, I hope to see your name in the fray.
