I am looking for a keynote speaker for a Symposium on Pattern Recognition 
and Machine Intelligence to be held in Wichita, Kansas in the Spring of
1988.  The Symposium will be part of the annual meeting of the Southwest
and Rocky Mountain Division of the American Association of the Advancement
of Science and will be attended mostly by scientists from the Midwest.  
The speaker should be someone with a national reputation
and a historical perspective on the field (PR/AI) and its relation to problems
of interest to scientists.  I would appreciate any advice and suggestions as 
to qualified speakers who might not be too expensive.

Richard Duda (co-author of the text "Pattern Classification and Scene 
Analysis") has been recommended, but I can't find him.  I tried SRI,
but he is not there. Does anyone know where he is now?
