Fritz bashing seems to be en vogue these days.  I haven't quite figured out why.
 All I know is that Fritz is ranked #1 on the SSDF rating list, it defeated
Hiarcs 22-18 in SSDF head to head competition, it defeated Hiarcs in the WCCC,
and tomorrow it is playing Ferret for the championship.  Ask Judit Polgar if she
thinks that Fritz is a joke.
