Naming my system as Argus

[Jesse Bowling]

I speak for no one other than myself, however, I would point out that
two years ago when you named your project ,THIS argus project had been
underway and widely in use for over 15 years.

I would suggest that you consider a new name for your project...The
difficulties you mention would be no less onerous for this project and
multiplied by the fact that it has been in use for much longer, not to
mention the number of references there have been to it in books and
papers.

Cheers,

Jesse
