It would seem that we share a fairly similar problem.

I arrived at knowledge based systems but it seems that means
that one is jus working from a script - - - the most common iteration
of such that I could find.

Seems like I've got the classic problem outlined - - - -argh.
You know the one - - - - there are some 30+ pictures of a rubber tire
tree swing all of which don't really work each of which has been
authorized by a different department. The customer just wanted
a simple tire swing.

Oh well - - - the search continues!

Thanks for the ideas.
