     Over a month ago, we announced in this forum an inductive  learn-
     ing competition, which was also announced in the magazine COMPUT-
     ING.  We are being pressed by COMPUTING to declare  a  winner  by
     Friday,  September  30, which means we must close the competition
     at 7:00 a.m. GMT (8:00 a.m. BDT, 3:00 a.m. EDT) on Thursday, Sep-
     tember  29.  Because this is almost two days earlier than a dead-
     line that appeared in one of our documents, we would like to hear
     from  anyone  who has a problem with the early closure, so that a
     fair arrangement can be provided.

     Many thanks to all those who have entered the competition.
