Subject: Death of Alan Robinson


Alan Bundy recently sent me the following news of Alan Robinson's death. I am not sure if AR had any direct connection to SAIL, but his work certainly impacted a great deal of the early SAIL work on machine inference.

Folks,


   I've just heard that Alan Robinson has died. His son Hugh sent me the following email. I've asked the AAR newsletter editor to circulate this news. Please pass it on to anyone else you think should know.
