Hi, its good seeing results of large test matches like this. It would be very
interesting to see the results of an identical match of Hiarcs 9 versus Glaurung
051213 if you have the time and interest in running it. The result should be
much closer to equality (I think!). I'm patiently waiting for H10 to arrive in a
store here in Sydney!
