	I suppose that applying AI to speech recognition would involve
making use of what we know about the perceptual and cognitive nature
of language sound-structures -- i.e. the results of phonology.  I don't
know that this has ever been tried.  If it has, could someone supply
references?  I'd be very interested to know what has been done in this
direction.
