Re: KR for Cogai/gentle reminder

David and all
I am aware the image was small, and hoped (assumed?)
that you were able to locate the source, pasted below
The image should be read in the context of the text in the PDF
I always use it in all of my talks on kr

(Adeel and Tim - we may also need a  FAQ  if you are up for maintaining one
Just to say, that I started studying and researching the AIKR  precisely to
find answers - most often I had to dig into library resources and read
hundreds of papers and eventually became a  scholar!)
