Dear Dr. Szeredi:
This is a belated letter of thanks for your letter and the
introspective program you sent me from London. I got involved in
other problems when I returned to Stanford and haven't got going
on introspection again yet. However, Brian Smith, who recently wrote a long
M.I.T. PhD Thesis on reflective versions of Lisp, has independently
become interested in a reflective version of Prolog. What Smith
who is now at Xerox Palo Alto Research Laboratory,
means by "reflective" seems to correspond to what I mean by
"introspective". I have sent Smith your program, but there is no
reaction yet.
