Would you choose to program in raw lambda calculus if you were writing a Web server or an e-mail client? If not, why would you choose to do so when writing an AGI? It's not like it's an easier problem to start with -- it's harder, so being handicapped with bad tools is an even bigger problem. ------------------------------------------- agi Archives: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/303/=now RSS Feed: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/rss/303/ Modify Your Subscription: https://www.listbox.com/member/?member_id=8660244&id_secret=117534816-b15a34 Powered by Listbox: http://www.listbox.com
