Java? Eeek! Why use Java when Lisp is and has been for sometime many
times more powerful, faster and the king of AI languages? If you aren't
going to use Lisp then use something better for the purposes at hand.
Java is a seriously limited toy language in comparison. Why would you
cripple an AI and the coding effort and the conceptual space by using
such a puny tool?
