- Long before that, graph theory and statistics were simply considered
- math, albeit somewhat obscure math. AI "cowboys" are notoriously poor
- at citing, or even being interested in, the origninators of ideas they
- claim to be there own. This continues to cause alot of antagonism and
- places in question the authenticity and merit of much reported work.
