I have been trying to use the fact(i) method of the class Token.
According to the API:

"i - the index (0-based) of the fact to retrieve. More recent (later)
facts have larger indexes."

This is some very unfortunate wording. It doesn't mean "later" in the
sense that they were added to the working memory at a later time; it
means "later" as in "farther down on the rule LHS." The fact that
matches the first pattern is fact(0); the next is fact(1), etc. I
should definitely clarify the language in the manual.
