Argh, I reread Breaking The Complexity Barrier (Again) 1973 and Winograd's still completely right.
It would be nice if:
- we could just run "learning" on a bunch of data, and it would figure everything out without us telling it
- we could just run "crunching" on a bunch of symbols, and it would figure everything out without etc.
but neither of those have an antecedent for being a way things work.

It makes me think I actually have to do the work of using Sandewall's Leonardo System =_=
