Mark, I have told you at least twice that after Hiarcs selected a4, the score
for Hiarcs went down all the way to a minus. and so I allowed it to replay the
move. Now, when it replayed the move it selected Rf1 and not a4. I again let
Hiarcs replay the move and again it selected Rf1 and with Rf1 it showed a plus
score. Obviously Hiarcs saw a4 was a bad move and would not play it again. I
don't care what Fritz or whatever did against Hiarcs because Hiarcs was playing
me and its learning function would not allow it to play a4. Now, I'll repeat
myself here and ask you once again if a4 was not a bad move, then why did it not
select a4 again and insisted on playing Rf1? No matter what you may think I was
playing the game and I saw the score go from a plus to a minus after a4 and Rf1
brought back the plus score for Hiarcs. Objectively speaking, I think it is
quite clear that a4 was a bad move or Hiarcs is one dizzy program!
