Got a marketing blurb from Maplesoft for Maple13/MapleSim2 that
included the following:

> Now, here's the really cool thing � MapleSim takes your data and,
> using the Maple symbolic math engine, derives the model's equations
> automatically.
>
> Even a cursory reading of the examples in the Getting Started Guide
> (in Maple) will demonstrate the lengths that the developers have gone
> through to assist the novice with every imaginable task.

Somehow I don't think this is really where we all want to
go. It sounds to me like modeling without understanding.

Cheers, Ken
