    A very large artificial-intelligence system (goes the story) had been built for the military to help in long-range policy planning; financed by ARPA, with people from M.I.T., Stanford and so on.

    "The system is now ready to answer questions," said the spokesman for the project.

    A four-star general bit off the end of a cigar, looked whimsically at his comrades and said:

    "Ask the machine this: Will it be Peace or War?"

    The clerk-typist translated this into the query language and typed it in.

    The machine replied: YES

    "Yes what?" bellowed the general.

    The operator typed in the query.

    Came the answer: Yes SIR
