Everybody has bugs. You frequently mention various bugs that you have found. Probably you have more, and when you discover them, you'll mention those too. I haven't seen anyone other than you disagree with moving your program down two notches. The general consensus is simply that Diep is almost, but not quite, as good as you think it is. Instead of being offended by this, consider it as a way to get easier pairings. Dave
