That's my point. NLP isn't performed by reasoning engine, if at all. It's a special case, and concepts-words have special status in the engine. But diversity of challenges in reasoning itself seems to be greater than what might be necessary for NLP. So why start at conceptual level? Internal KR language can be used occasionally to steer pattern formation and observe reasoning internals, and natural language can be used for most of the teaching, from the very start. -- Vladimir Nesov mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ----- This list is sponsored by AGIRI: http://www.agiri.org/email To unsubscribe or change your options, please go to: http://v2.listbox.com/member/?member_id=231415&user_secret=e9e40a7e
