@greeting(Dear Dean Rothlein:)
@begin(body)
I am somewhat familiar with Professor Parikh's work and all I have heard of 
his work is good.  However, I am not sufficiently familiar with the fields of
recursive function theory and computability and complexity to compare his work
with that of others in this field.

Sincerely,




John McCarthy
Professor of Computer Science
