If this is correct, then Bob is to be congratulated - there's life in the old dog yet! :)
Human chess is partly about tactics and strategy, but mostly about memory

What are you waiting for??? I don't follow discussions everywhere. I've documented the +100 in my cluster testing, and I have said that I do not know if this translates to real games with an opening book, because we do not release a tournament book and all my testing is done sans book using a big set of starting positions ala' the Nunn test approach.
