{JUFA}	Enclosed is a thesis copy. Like most  theses it starts strong
and peters out towards the end. 

	My plans are to leave the A.I. Lab (officially in March 1975)
and to setup up a place of my own. At the moment, I have  a PDP-11/05
with  28K  (4K  core  &  24K MOS),  21  Megabytes  of  disk,  Infoton
keyboard/display,  one  dectape  drive,  paper-tape  equipment  and a
number of contract  programming projects which  are paying very  well
for the  amount of work.   In a  year or two,  I hope to  have enough
capital, annuities and friends so  that my home computer system  will
be into television  and graphics; otherwise, I will  probably abandon
`prostitution programming' and look for an ivory tower job. 

	I  continue  to  follow  neurology  and  neuroanatomy  as  an
avocation;  I have just  read Shepard's ~The Synaptic Organization of
the Brain~ and  have a collection  of similar  paperback books on  the
subject (e.g.   Katz, Eccles, Guyton,  etc).  Perhaps someday  I will
get  around to reading the `Truex and  Carpenter' my brother gave me.
Consquently, I am not in  an immediate position to take up a  new job
on the east coast; but I am still interested in your work and would
appreciate any description you may have of your image processing
problems. My home address is: 18367 McCoy; Saratoga, California; 95070.
I will continue to have a PPPN and a mailbox at the A.I. Lab; but
wouldn't be looking at them everyday.
