banquo[s86,jmc]		Notes for Banquet speech at logic programming conf.

1. Expert system in metalogic for getting around British Nationality Act.
What is metalogic?  It's the system in which you write that program.
On my recent trip to Hong Kong that was all the rage.
The u.s. version will run on a Cray-3.
The trouble with the British is that they have ideas but others capitalize
in them.   Why when I passed through immigration last week there were
all these people with the pocket British Nationality Act expert systems.

2. Proving SDI won't work?

3. Falklands and Hong Kong logic program.

4. In this talk I have tried to follow the footsteps
of one of my most famous fellow countrymen in informing the British,
who can't help being insular, about what is going on in the rest of
the world.  In 17xx Benjamin Franklin informed a British audience,
"The grand leap of the Whale up the Falls of Niagara is esteemed, by all
who have seen it, as one of the finest spectacles of Nature."
- Benj. Franklin.
