Tania, when are you going to consider that perhaps your results DO lie?
This constant praise of Hiarcs is getting beyond ridiculous.  Both the
SSDF and recent WCCC disagree with your glorious assessment of Hiarcs
vs. Fritz.  It is HIGHLY LIKELY therefore that your tournaments done on
the same machine ARE COMPLETELY WORTHLESS for making any serious
determination.  A serious comparison cannot be done running two programs
on the same machine at the same time. Please check the WCCC results and
SSDF list again and come back to a sense of reality.  The legitimate,
reasonable evidence suggests the programs are very close in strength,
probably too close to call.
