Hi Swami,

nice engines, all three.
Smash and Sage have quite entertaining styles, although I found that I used to have a few time losses with Smash.
It's a shame that new versions of these two engines seem unlikely.
Hopefully Salvador is still working on Clarabit.

Cheers,
Graham.

It's been a long time since I had talked with Salvador. He's a nice guy and we had a great chat in one of the CCT's.

Sage's score on Simplification(STS10) is really very high, on par with some of the 2900's. So I believe we have identified where its strength clearly is in.

As for Smash, I haven't seen its play but it does have a wonderful Pv lines. Reminds me of Daydreamer's style.
