231301 - Follow up ref SDS 9 0000. ref SDS 8 0000.
231303 -  ..
231304 - Received ref DRT 1 0001 a letter dated 050318 from Simon responding to
231305 - the letter on 050317, ref DIP 2 0001, commending KMI on sponsoring a
231306 - project to evaluate tools and methods that aid argumentation.
231307 - ref SDS 9 B46F
231309 -  ..
231310 - Simon says today...
231311 -
231312 -    Thanks for the encouragement!  I don't know if you would consider
231313 -    your knowledge technologies a candidate Computer-Supported
231314 -    Argumentation tool?  If so, (or even if not sure) you are welcome
231315 -    to register as a Player and go to work on representing the Iraq
231316 -    source documents we have published.  Then we can compare and
231317 -    contrast what you publish with the other tools. ref DRT 1 0001
231319 -  ..
231320 - This might fit goals Gary Johnson discussed in a letter dated 041109,
231321 - and reviewed the next day on 041110. ref SDS 6 KO4X
231323 -  ..
231324 - Submitted ref DIT 1 0001 responding to Simon's invitation to
231325 - participate in KMI's project, and saying...
231326 -
231327 -    1.  Responding to your letter on March 18, I would love to support
231328 -        your project, but do not have time. ref DIT 1 0001  Examples of
231329 -        SDS are on the Internet, recently receiving notice of KMI's
231330 -        project, reported on March 17. ref SDS 9 0000
231332 -         ..
231333 -    2.  SDS does not strive for argument to persuade, ref DIT 1 YW6L,
231334 -        but rather to "understand" and "follow up" on getting done
231335 -        whatever it was the argument persuaded people to do, discussed
231336 -        on 050317. ref SDS 9 KS4K
231338 -         ..
231339 -    3.  In any case, "argument" is a component of "intelligence
231340 -        support" called out in NWO, ref OF 10 A56M, which is why your
231341 -        project stands out.
