silber@sbphy.ucsb.edu (03/24/89)

from the scruffies to the neats, and from the connectionists to
the symbolists, along a great and widening divide, two new

they (the neural-net-critters and the symbol-crunching-critters)
will be as adept at MISunderstanding each other as are their human
progenitors.
