While I'm equally horrified by the idea of someone using DOS as a benchmark,
there is a difference between 'stump' "I can't figure this out" and 'stump' "I
haven't learned much about this".  And Alan did say he was studying
neuroscience, which at this point I figure is at least as likely to lead to
insights about intelligence than a bunch of programmers flailing around with
our underpowered computers.  Human performance is the benchmark, after all...
