[blml] Positronic brain

[Herman De Wael]

Yesterday, the following occured to me:

I was second in hand, and started looking intently at my cards. After 
lots of thought, I opened 2Cl. In our system, this is either weak with 
both majors, or any semi-GF hand. After I'd done this, it seemed to me 
that I had given UI. Of course I was strong - why else would I need to 
think for so long. Now equally certainly, in the second round of 
bidding, I was to give AI to my partner that I was strong (by bidding 
when any weak hand would now pass).

This is not any sort of "extraneous" information. It is UI, pure and 
simple. Yet the AI from the next round tells exactly the same thing. 
Is my partner burdened with L16 restrictions? Of course I mean after 
the second bid, of course he is restricted during the first round of 
bidding.
