Lanny:

Thanks for the compliments. I agree that machines in this speed range are the
best test of Hiarcs 7 strength on generic machines (i.e., not terribly fast but
not slow either). And since you have shown a litle more confidence in my prep
than others, I'll tell you that Hiarcs 7 has spent over 500 hours on its opening
book already, and we are still 2 1/2 months from game day.
