   I also stopped by their booth and had a longish talk with them Sat. morning
about it....
   It seemed pretty full featured, simple rule syntax, nice display for the
rules, confidence factors -- and this is where it got interesting.. they said
that there were several built-in ways to crunch the fuzzy logic, and that if
those didn't work for you, you could write your own (don't see how unless it
is a compiler of sorts.. but that's what they said).
   I never actually got to see it running bacause the guy I was talking to
had just written a hardware troubleshooting system for the Amiga in it earlier
that morning and was still typing it in... did anybody get a chance to see it
in action?  How quick was it?  Did it allow access to any of the graphics
features of the Amiga?
