He was quite a character.  Here&apos;s a Jerry quote for you: &quot;The brain is not a computer.  The brain is a gland.&quot;  I don&apos;t even know if he believed that, but he loved to stir controversy -- and announcing this at the MIT AI Lab c. 1982 certainly accomplished that!&lt;p&gt;I would say &quot;RIP&quot;, but he probably already has his lab set up and is hard at work, wherever he is :-)</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>MIT professor&apos;s hack to recruit students</title><url>http://librarylab.law.harvard.edu/blog/2011/06/01/gaming-the-library/</url></story>

You can see highlights and notes from everyone who has ever read the book.  That&apos;s insane!  That&apos;s Lettvin&apos;s hack, scaled to the max.  The problem is obviously filtering all that data, but look how much larger the pool gets: now the professor doesn&apos;t just have the pool from MIT to choose from, he might have the whole &lt;i&gt;world&lt;/i&gt; to choose from.&lt;p&gt;What an awesome time we live in.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>MIT professor&apos;s hack to recruit students</title><url>http://librarylab.law.harvard.edu/blog/2011/06/01/gaming-the-library/</url></story>
