 I have scanned "Towards a Programming Apprentice" and may read it some more,
 but here are some preliminary comments, since I may not have time to read
 more:
 
 	1. It is much clearer than anything I have read of yours before.
 
 	2. There is still too much emphasis on saying how PLASMA is
 better than other things, especially in the beginning.  You should really
 give a pretty full exposition of what you propose before the comparisons.
 
 	3. The examples of actual programs are still too few and do
 not exhibit enough of the claimed examples of PLASMA. In my scan, I found
 the recursive function examples which came to about the same thing as
 the corresponding LISP programs, because the pattern matching in these
 particular examples was trivial, but I didn't find an example of a substantial
 collection of actors.  In particular, I am still puzzled about how an actor
 distinguishes a message it receives asking for its reply from one that it
 receives as a reply.  Perhaps my mental model of PLASMA as a kind of
 parallel system with the different actors operating in parallel is faulty.
 
 	I think a seminar would be a good  idea, but I am not doing any
 organizing I can help now.  Perhaps, Terry would like to organize one.

 Dear Craig:
 
 	By all means, determine the cost of using an IBM 370 to put a 3850
 on the network, but my guess is that it will be far more cost-effective
 to put it on one of the existing PDP-10s, especially one that uses the 3330
 already such as ours or CCAs.  Ralph Gorin estimates that it could be
 operating on our system two months after delivery of the hardware in a mode
 where files on the 3330 would be in our file system and could be put in and
 out of the system by FTP.  Thus TENEX users would need no new software.
 It is that easy, because the 3850 is designed to act as a virtual 3330.
 Besides the 3850 itself, our 3830 controller would have to be converted from
 a model 2 to a model 3.  Gorin thinks we would also need another 3333 which
 is the disk module with some additional control capability, we would probably
 need to replace our present homemade channel by an SA-10 made by Systems
 Concepts and might need one or two more 3330 modules to act as buffers, but
 more likely we could get by with the four we have now since we could put
 some of our own files on the 3850.
 
 	While we would like to do this, it is more important that the network
 have a 3850 than that we operate it.  An argument in favor of our operating it
 or the M.I.T. AI Lab operating it is uptime.  As you know, hacker maintained
 machines have much less downtime than professionally maintained machines,
 because the "fix it when it breaks" method leads to less downtime than
 scheduling substantial amounts of time for maintenance.
 
 	The cost of the SA-10 mentioned above is $37K and the maximal additional
 rental for IBM hardware mentioned above is about $3K per month, and so these
 costs are minor compared to the cost of the $3850 itself.  I forget the rental,
 but the price of the 35 billion byte minimal version is about a million.
 Unless Marrill has tied himself into a knot with his 3330, he ought to be
 able to provide the same service almost as cheaply.  I should say that I see
 no additional personnel cost if we did it.
 
 	As to how much we would spend on the use of a network 3330, I can't
 rightly say.  Of course, the price for storage of information on it would
 have to be lower than the price for adding more modules to our 3330 system,
 even non-IBM modules.  Maybe we could go back to model 1 3330s if there were
 such a 3850 and reduce the number of drives.  We now have 4 drives and they
 come in pairs.  Maybe we could even get rid of our user disk pack and have
 users keep their data on the 3850 and go to only two 3330 drives.  As an
 extreme, we might even be able to go to an imitation 2314 instead of our
 3330.  This also depends on how fast data can be transferred over the network.
 Maybe you need to do a market survey.
 
 	On the other hand, if there were a 3850 on the network at a really
 low cost, say at not more than twice the rental of the bare 3850 to IBM,
 we would be tempted to keep some really big files.
 
 	I don't want to go into our KL-10 plans and our arguments for
 time-sharing research now.

 1. Fine about Berlekamp.
 
 2. Associated with the cut in university funds for computing should be
 a change in accounting so that the rates on the 360/67 could be reduced,
 and the funds would go farther.  Have the deans got to use the money
 saved, which nominally comes from the provost, for other purposes, e.g.
 faculty salaries?  Otherwise, I would imagine that it would be the Provost
 who would legislate the cut.  (If legislate is the word for an executive
 action.)
 
 3. Naively speaking, a 30% cut in 300 employees would leave 210.  However,
 if only 100 of the employees are in the group being cut, because the
 others are basic support staff or SLAC and you didn't mean them did you,
 then a 30% cut leaves 270.

 Dear Lick,
 
 	Ralph Gorin, our chief systems programmer, was talking with
 Alan Kotok urging that D.E.C. make a 48 bit machine now that the
 KL-10 was mostly developed, and Kotok told him that you were urging
 the same.  I hope you will persist in this and that they will really
 do it.  Such a machine could live into the coming era of big memories
 that will obsolete almost everything else, and everything I have 
 heard tells me that IBM is moving into a monumental blind alley.

 It seems to me that we should make one more change in the ns command
 format.  Namely, now that commands must be followed by space we can
 take keyword expressions without spaces.  In fact we could even have
 multi-letter commands if they take an argument separated by spaces
 and if we outlaw spaces within keyword expressions.  I think the format
 has made great progress already - one level is a big success.  Let's
 get together and go over all the formats.

 Please work out a course description for a course in vision and graphics,
 if one or both of you would like to teach it this winter or spring.  Apparently
 winter may be better from Floyd's point of view.  Try to get a draft this
 week.
