There was a recent question about what MRS stands for.  According to 
"The Compleat Guide to MRS" by Stuart Russell Esq., Stanford University
Knowledge Systems Laboratory Report No. KSL-85-12, page 2, "MRS stands for
Meta-level Representation System".  In the preface on page i MRS is
described briefly as "a logic programming system with extensive meta-level
facilities.  As such it can be used to impement virtually all kinds of 
artificial intelligence applications in a wide variety of architectures."
