Am I the only person of the opinion that, while a title like this is clearly
ok in a relatively ephemeral context, such as an actual lecture handout, it is 
potentially seriously misleading in a more permanent context, e.g. as the
title of a *book* which will presumably be consulted after the 1980s are over?
One hopes that work of significance in NLP will occur in 1988 and 1989.
