    >In 1995/1996 I made a work called "Reconocimiento de Voz mediante
    >el Perceptrón Multicapa" ("Speech Recognition using the MultiLayer
    >Perceptron") and I learnt a lot about Neural Nets.
    >I continued my Telecommunication Engineering studies (at ETSIT.UPM.es)
    >and wondered why AI isn't a reality and realiced that one single personal
    >computer is too simple (not enough memory, not enough speed,...)
    >to get near to a human brain.
    >I also wondered how the unused cycles of computers could be used
    >by other people particularly when, according to Moore's law, the
    >power of the computers increases very fast and nowadays PCs are
    >too much for most of the usages people do.
    >Then I connected both thoughts and created the InterSAINT Project
    >(with a website: www.InterSAINT.org and mailing list/group for discussion:
