Bill, I think we differ mainly on semantics here. What you call "values" I'm just calling the highest-level goals in the goal hierarchy... A goal in Novamente is a kind of predicate, which is just a function that assigns a value in [0,1] to each input situation it observes... i.e. it's a 'valuation' ;-) ben ------- To unsubscribe, change your address, or temporarily deactivate your subscription, please go to http://v2.listbox.com/member/?[EMAIL PROTECTED]
