Phil,
This has been a very interesting thread with you. I just drove to California
for Christmas and bought an audio tape for the road titled Before the Dawn
by Nicholas Wade. Its very interesting about how much information
archeologists can recover just from DNA in living humans today. In p
OK, just one more addition to the J theme. Sorry to be noisy!
I wrote to the J forum two years ago on the topic:

Some of the responses were quite interesting. For example, J has a
"Tacit" mode which lets you prove equivalence
St. John's Cafe is closed tomorrow for the break.
Due to Tom Johnson's fine scouting, we'll be meeting at Le Zodiac Café at
Garrett's Desert Inn at Alameda and Old Santa Fe Trail.

think its time I sit down and start writing on the divide between
Math and Computing.
One of the more interesting discussions on this topic comes from the

Hi Friam,
Returning from music to the question of searching for mathematical
expressions. This may be foolish, but what about using a functional
programming language, such as Haskell, as a "standard format" for
searchable math expressions? It reads enough like math that it
wouldn't be very diffi
Hello,
I came across Eurekster/Google community/collaborative search engines,
and I thought maybe this would be a good idea for the FRIAM group.
The Eurekster FAQ says in a nutshell what it's about:
