Micro-ps is cute, and it is nice to see it mentioned, but it in no way should be
construed to indicate the capabilities of KES as it currently stands.  Micro-ps
was crippled compared to the KES of its day which didn't even have classes or
forward chaining.  KES has been fundamentally improved continually since then.
