Abstract

Shortly after I agreed to participate in this conference, I received a letter from a psychologist friend, who had been working in the area of cognitive simulation. He had become discouraged, feeling that less and less work was going on. He felt that attempts to simulate cognitive functioning were a dead end and he was leaving the field. He wanted to let me know.
