I am sorry you did not know Graham. I believe it was posted on Talkchess, but likely that was in CTF because Bill used to post there. I still have the listing from Bill's chessprogram in BASIC somewhere.
It is nice that there was somebody close to him that still checked his Facebook for him, for situations like this.

Debugging is twice as hard as writing the code in the first
place. Therefore, if you write the code as cleverly as possible, you
are, by definition, not smart enough to debug it.
