	I greatly admired Richard O'Keefe's use of grammer rules, and I 
	have almost convinced myself that I understand what is going on.
	However, my PROLOG interpreter doesn't understand - it crashes!
	Now my interpreter is very good at crashing so that doesn't mean
	much (yes I know, I need a new interpreter, computer, production
	rule system ..........), but I was curious, has anyone else had
	problems running Richard O'Keefe's examples.  I have a feeling
	that a number of PROLOG systems may have taken Clocksin and 
	Mellish too seriously as the definitive characterization of the
	language.
