[humanmarkup-comment] Today's meeting minutes, etc.

[Rex Brooks <rexb@starbourne.com>]

Hi Everyone,

We had a productive meeting today and I would like to thank all who 
attended. I will, as usual, attempt to have the minutes written up 
and posted soon and the TC website updated by the end of the weekend.

I was stimulated enough that I wanted to fling myself into the work, 
but I have to continue to wrestle with Windows 2000, which is 
currently telling me that it has been successfully repaired, but I 
still can't run my prime application, 3D Studio Max and is also still 
exhibiting some of the symptoms I would like to have remedied, but 
which don't require a complete new installation,yet,  which is 
soemething I would like to avoid since it entails reinstalling the 
whole mountain of software I seem to require.

Regardless, I will still get the minutes done and the website updated 
in due course. I will be tackling bodylocation, the next element, 
tomorrow. I expect we will be discussing artifact for a while.

I want to welcome our latest prospective member, Philip Rossomando, 
Research Director, Technology & Architecture, Unisys Corporation, who 
we hope to hear from soon on the topic of developing a grammar as we 
build our Base Primary Schema. We pointed him in the direction of 
semiotics for background on one of the main bases of our work. Since 
he is already grounded in Chomsky's work, it shouldn't be much of a 
stretch.

Just so the TC folks know, we will probably be gaining a new member 
or two, since I received an inquiry from an associate of the 
Institute for Defense Analysis and the Defense Modeling and 
Simulation Office whose current interest is in modeling human 
behavior.

It looks like interesting times ahead.

Ciao,
Rex
