Hello Brett,

You said it very well indeed! Yes, I too have posted the fact that Fritz needs
more Hash-table megs than what Tania allows. Unfortunately, that is the only way
for her to do the test. However, the strong criticism I see in regards to
Fritz's play does somewhat bother me for I like to see two programs tested
equally - as you have stated above. I have both Fritz and Hiarcs and I don't
have any bias towards either - just want to see fair testing giving meaningful
results.

Regards,
Mel
