I've been doing reading recently in AI, and have found several references
to Eurisko.  From what I've read, it was considered a failure, in part
because it redefined itself as a person in order to have free access
to its programmers.  This fascinates me, and I would appreciate any 
information anyone out there might have on Eurisko, or where I could
find more information on it.

THe other thing I've been reading about lately is computer poetry.
I found a small book of computer poems and found them really interesting.
Is this type of work still being done?  Does anyone out there know of
any good places to find out more?

Thanks a lot,
Heather MacLeod
