Some good observations. I have been working on adaptability with my program. Slow and hard work. It is not very strong, but I agree with a lot of what you say. Consider this. Faster machines with deeper ply may solve a lot of positional issues. Position is only as strong as the tactics it eventually generates. IMHO. :) There are still holes in the programs, but they are harder to find (but once found, pay off). Programs score higher and higher with each new hardware release, putting more pressure on everyone to find holes in 40/2 competition. One big tool a person uses today to beat the beast is to learn from the mistakes the computer made in previous games and plan an imporvement that will lead to a win. Match play is the key to beating programs today. IMHO. :) Best Regards, Chris Carson
