	Hey Art!~


	I spent a day at CGI last week and they showed me some work they've
done integrating Neural Nets and Expert Systems.  Their test system uses a
SW based NN to detect fualt patterns in fan(typical house fan) engine 
vibrations and sends the output to Testbench for diagnosis and recommendations.

	The whole thing runs on a PC.  CGI then showed me their SMP (typical 
scheduling system for maintainence of railraod engines).

	I immediately thought of the process control application you told me 
about where the maintanence guys go and feel the pumps to determine when they 
need to be serviced.  I figured one might combine the NN/ES vibration anaylsis 
system with the SMP scheduler for a nifty solution.

	Anyway, CGI is looking for "real" applications to try the technology
out on.  Can I have Gail Koerner give you a call?

/Dino
