In reply to a post by Pete Berger in the thread Tiger 12.0 - Junior 5, 5-3 where Pete mentioned a former post by Chris Whittington, I looked up some material in my personal "archives" and added it to the thread. I knew that post only because Ed Schröder had published it once on his pages with other posts on the subject of search depth vs. knowledge, in light of his 'Chess in 2010' experiment. This post is now not present anymore on Ed's pages, I now think there may have been a complaint by Chris about infringement of copyright. If I had known this to be the case I would of course not have published this material again. Especially not in this way as having been part of the Rebel pages, if Chris had objected to that. And I suppose then as a post 'sec' also not because it was not originally posted in this forum with commercial sponsorship and Chris then might object to being quoted here if he wasn't asked permission. If that is more or less how he sees it then I didn't know that. Therefore my apologies to Chris if he thinks he wasn't quoted in a proper context, I presume because I made reference to his post as having been part of material on a Rebel page and reproduced it as such or maybe also because this forum is not 'public' enough. I think his was a very insightful post and especially for non-programmers like me a post that deserves to be read again. Especially in a context like the above mentioned thread and the complementary observations of Christophe. I would therefore like to ask Chris if he would consider posting those views himself in this 'nonpublic' forum or if he has changed any of his former views to also publish these. In which case would it then be allright to quote such a post in this forum, if this would be done in the proper context of a possible discussion on an appropriate topic? My regards to Chris, I'm going to try catch some sleep, Eelco
