d5 and nd4 (the fritz) is exactly what I would want Patricia to play in that situation. Strength is a good thing, of course, but not if it's at the expense of aggression for Patricia; there are tons of strong and reasonably aggressive chess engines out there, Patricia's whole thing is it goes all out for style.
