*nods* Would it be accurate to say that you see the encoding of specific knowledge as the difficult and expensive thing, then, and so you're trying to create an environment that maximizes the resources that can be brought to bear on it, while also providing as many opportunities as possible for incremental progress (individual modules) to be rewarded and reused? ------------------------------------------- agi Archives: http://www.listbox.com/member/archive/303/=now RSS Feed: http://www.listbox.com/member/archive/rss/303/ Modify Your Subscription: http://www.listbox.com/member/?member_id=8660244&id_secret=101455710-f059c4 Powered by Listbox: http://www.listbox.com
