Hi!

I was very surprised when I found that in move ordering putting the checking
moves at the head of the moves chain is something unusual. It can be. I wrote me
logic alone and maybe in a wrong way. At least, somebody explained me why this
way is so wrong. I went to my game and tryed to find what is true. Disconnected
in 2 plys from 8 plys deposition of the checking moves at the head of the moves
chain. Speed of the logic went down between 10 to 40%. So putting the moves that
make check at the head of the chain have more that simple good sense.

Leonid.
