Vaguely. I was in grad school at the time (Analytical Chemistry,
Michigan State), and one of the sub-groups in my research group was
devoted to AI, primarily with LISP and C. These kids (I was 40 years old
at the time) kept up with all that stuff, and bored the rest of us with
many such issues during many group meetings. LOL.

Whenever a bunch government-funded researchers get together, it always
reminds me of the old adage,

"A camel is a horse designed by a committee."
