I've no problem with that at all - I just think it's funny that instead of being left out because one did not conform/did not know about some statndardized system, it may well be possible to have decentralized scaling. Mappings mean more chance for the little guy to create competitive systems, without having to research thousands of other systems before hand, which can surely only be a good thing. Of course, there is the problem with the need for a standardized inference langauge, but I think that even that could be bootstrapped in to a certain extent... hey, that'd make a great little test... -- Kindest Regards, Sean B.
