Doing that has been in the back of my mind for a year or two. As usual,
I'll likely never get to it. I happen to think that MUDs, presenting tools
for parsing, a persistent programming language, lots of test subjects
(users), etc., make an excellent test-bed for that sort of thing. Hey,
maybe the world's first true AI will run in a MUD!

Don't design inefficiency in - it'll happen in the implementation.
