Dentrol: A dental expert system based upon tooth maintenance
      principles.
Faust: A black magic advisor with mixed initiative goal generation.
Doug: A system which will convert any given domain into set theory.
Cray: An expert arithmetic advisor.  Heuristics exist for any sort of
      real number computation involving arithmetic functions (+, -,
      and several others) within a finite (but large) range around 0.0.
      The heuristics are shown to be correct for typical cases.
Meta: An expert at thinking up new domains in which there should be
      expert systems.
Flamer: A expert at seeming to be an expert in any domain in which it
      is not an expert.
IT: (The Illogic Theorist) A expert at fitting any theory to any quanity
    of protocol data.  Theories must be specified in "ITLisp" but IT can
    construct the protocols if need be.
