James,

Nice output, but Rxd3 is the move to avoid, not the correct move.  You missed
the "am" in the epd.

That's a problem with this position.  The two possible captures are fairly close
in eval, so if you happen to pick the bishop move, then you won't see the large
negative associated with the rook capture.  My fault, not a clear cut situation.
 Try making the rook move, then see how long to find the +1.5 or so from black's
perspective.

Will
