Actually, I was kind of planning to go back and get them, if I ever get
the chance. Closed timelike curves and all that. Let's hear it for
General Relativity.

Anyway, Lenat isn't dead. Maybe that's the problem. We'd have a better
chance of freeing the source code if he weren't alive to keep a
stranglehold on the copyright... (No, that wasn't a hint to any
aspiring assassins out there. We might still need him.)
