Dobromir,
I think that the best way to construct rule2 would
be:
<rule name="rule2">
<param type="String">s</param>
<when>
<cond>( ! s.equalsIgnoreCase("dobromir") )</cond>
</when>
<then>
pr.println("Don't know what to say!");
retractObject( s );
</then>
</rule>
The idea is to contruct conditions that the engine can
see are the same or nearly the same to create a RETE network
that evaluates terms of conditions the minimum number of times.
I am not sure the the DROOL engine is up to the task.
