REQUEST FOR PROLOG PROGRAMS !!

I posted this article with distribution: us several days back, but haven't
got any replies.  For those of you who would like to help, but think
some one else would do it any way - no - nobody else has done  it, so
please go ahead.

As a course project this semester, I'm doing a study of "real life" prolog
programs.  The aim of this study is to find the extent to which "real life"
prolog programs are purely declarative ( and don't depend on the control 
strategy) and the extent to which the control strategy dependency is fairly
small.  This ultimate aim is to study how useful bottom up evaluation strategies
would be, and to see what changes could be made to these to mimic some 
(simple) forms of control.
	To achieve this, I need a good ( fairly big sized) collection of
prolog programs.  I request netters who have a collection of prolog programs
to mail me a sample (atleast) set.  Any odd programs will do, whatever be the
application, but comments on the application would be very helpful.
	If the programs are too big to email, but can be ftp'd, please mail
details of how to access them.

Thanks.
