        As a further comment, the perceptual/motor modeling in ACT-R was
borrowed from EPIC, another cognitive architecture developed by David
Kieras and David Meyer of the University of Michigan (see a couple of very
big articles in Psychological Review).  Kieras has been interested in HCI
applications and has done quite a bit of work of that type.
         At some point I discovered that the borrowing from EPIC to ACT-R
was not thoroughgoing and did not include much of the detail of EPIC's
perceptual modeling.   This seemed like a foolish choice to me.  It might
well make a difference.
