Although I failed to mention it at the colloquium, I have to echo Jon
Bosak's sentiments -- Adam's proposal is *very* exciting, and
potentially *achievable* because of it's strict limitations. At the same

seriously useful result -- both for current problems and for designing
the next-generation system.
