Dear Brian:

	I'm sorry that I put you to the trouble of chasing me and
that I'm unable to accept your invitation.  The reason is that
getting out a set of written lectures doesn't fit my current
writing plans.  Also I wouldn't want to give a general survey of
AI but would concentrate on epistemological problems, and I suspect
that mightn't suit your audience.

	I have papers that could be reproduced, but they contain
more material than could be covered in two or three lectures.
