Tom Simonds quotes Peter Maass:
"... a senior manager at Aramco told the visitors that "fuzzy logic"
would be used to estimate the amount of oil that could be recovered.
Simmons had never heard of fuzzy logic. What could be fuzzy about an
oil reservoir?"
Anything that needs to be "estimated" must, be definition, involve some
uncertainty or imprecision. Fuzzy logic deals with imprecision. What
is the
confusion?
