Reasoning v. other AI stuff

[Arthur T. Murray]

http://www.xrefer.com/entry/553357/ -- "reasoning"
by Christopher A. Kirwan is one of the AI-background
links now incorporated into the "AI4Udex" on-line index of
http://search.barnesandnoble.com/bookSearch/isbnInquiry.asp?ISBN=0595259227 --
the AI textbook "AI4U: Mind-1.1 Programmer's Manual."

The AI4U book describes an artificial Mind (modeled on neuroscience)
whose Mind-1.1 software release has been "frozen" at a point
where the AI is just beginning to deal with issues of reasoning.
For instance, the Mentifex AI answers
http://www.xrefer.com/entry/553872/ -- "why" -- questions
with "because" responses -- not with logical surety,
but in hopes (by the programmer :-) of associative validity.
