In Response To: Open Player Survey Conclusion (jdg)

Although I agree that (good) counting methods are useful, I disagree with assigning any value to Bell's book. I recall using JF to look at the positions in it (which he could have done, btw) and finding something like 40 wrong recommendations, including a couple where he said TG,Pass which were actually beavers.

I don't like to diss the hard work of BG authors but I'd rather do that than see some well-intentioned student get poisoned by bad advice such as that in Bell's book.
