Last week, Computer Literacy bookstore completed a kick off opening
lecture series, some very noted computers scientists spoke over the
course of two weeks.  I think comments by two speakers would interest
recent discussions on both Arms-d and AIlist.  In particular,
Dr. Ed. Feigenbaum made mention in his words that the SDIO has
dropped funding of AI from its budget.  His implication appeared
to be more software engineering oriented rather than battle
management oriented.  I don't know if they have or not, but I personally
do not get the impression that they have, especially for battle
management.
