> Often in the MIT technical reports, one would see 'x = fu(y)' or 'y > bar(z)' Hmm, "fu"? The decades confound my memory, but I don't immediately recall seeing a "fu" there? Before the "foo" of AIM-127a[1] in 1967 and MIT-LCS-TR-032[2] in 1966, there's still a decade of AI Memos, and couple of years of TRs. DSpace finds at least some "fu"s... lots of ocr fragments. The AITR-220 '64 hit is ocr fragment. My search-fu tonight wasn't up to being exhaustive (spot checks were all fragments). And also, OCR could be missing older "fu"s. But I didn't quickly find a real "fu". A foo-bar-baz-quux in MIT-LCS-TR-365[3] in 1986. One can start on the CSAIL collections page[4] and explore.
