First day, on arrival, everyone falls on his knees and adore the new God.
Second day results comes of games against well known and stablished programs and
the New God appears as performing miracles.
Third day -or second day night- first testers say that it is a great program
indeed, but it does not know how to give a mate in this or that specific
conditions. Some harsh voices even ask if the new engine is not, in fact, a
clone of Crafty ofr Fruit.
Fourth day it is discussed if the new engine will become commercial or not. Some
dare to say that they will purchase if it cost no more than 29 bucks. Followers
proclaim the advent of a New Age. Philosophers of history forecast the decline
and fall of commercial programs.
Fifth day Pablo announces that father has got a draw.
Sixth day there is a lull.
Seven day a new program arrives and everyone falls on his knees and adore the
new God.
Eight day results comes of games against well known and stablished programs and
the New God appears as performing miracles.
In the day nine ........

Oh well, It is harmless and we get a kick Regards
