On my way to Usenix, I was reading the June '87 issue of AI magazine, where 
there is a review of a large number of prologs for pc's.  In particular, they
mention two for the ST, one called MPROLOG by Logicware Inc for a cost in the
100's and one called XPRO by a company called Rational Visions which had a
cost of $40.  The good news is that the second company had a Phoenix address,
and since I was going to be there for a week I thought I would drop in to see
them.  To make a long story short, the phone number in the review was out of 
service, and the address was in a u-rent-it type of place, so it is not at all
clear where these people are located - they may not even live in Arizona.  I'm
not saying that it doesn't exist, but I wouldn't send cash!

Since the magazines have incredible lead times, and since benchmarks were
included, has anyone out there seen either of these products or have any
proof of their existence?  (The first one had no benchmark results, so I'm
a bit suspicious there as well).
