{It is quite surprising that in this simple symmetrical position, white's turn
to move is decisive, due to opposition and ZZ. This work will be a valuable
training material for students of the game. Yet we have to examine the human
contribution to computer work. Now, right in the initial position, the
software announces "mate in 41 moves". The author follows the moves on the
screen, investing neither effort, nor a single drop of imagination, just paste
and copy. Despite the intriguing initial position, while acknowledging the
composer's general excellence, I feel that this work deserves at best a
