You are invited to enter one or more of the following contests.  Entries
close at noon on Friday, April 12.  Winners will be selected
by an impartial
panel consisting of me, under the influence of any pressure groups that form
in the meantime.

.cb %1#%31 Logo Contest

We need a logo for the AI Lab, for use in decorating the covers of reports,
letterheads, or whatnot.  You are invited to contribute one or more ideas by posting
them below.  Entries will be judged on
the basis of orginality, suitability, and aesthetics.

Here is a random sample of other logos, some of them too ornate.
.once preface 0; select 6
S

You might choose a symbol that represents one or more things that go on here,
a play on the name of the lab, an abstract doodle, or whatever.  We're interested
in ideas, not beautiful drawings -- a sketch will do nicely.  Also, don't
sign your entry, but put your initials on the back.

.every heading(,%1#%3N Recursive Prize Contests,); next page;

This is a family of contests whose object 
is to propose suitable prizes for the preceding contest (i.e. in contest N,
N>1, you propose a prize for contest N-1).
Entries will be judged on the basis of originality,
suitability, and low cost.

To complete the specification, the prize for the highest numbered contest
is that you are imprinted with the winning logo from contest #1.
