Fuzzy Logic

Bilo:

You said:  "on top of that rule based system can be improved by 50-100% if utilizing
even simple FL with the right approach."

Another one of your intriguing statements!  This has led me to start educating
myself on the wonderful world of fuzzy logic.  Care to expand on what you consider
"the right approach" ??

Thanks,

  David R
