I should also point out that David Kittenger has also used root preprocessing (e.g., Novag Super Constellation) in a manner somewhat similar to Schaeffer's approach. And, themantic analysis was also used in the Church and Church single ply speed program ca. 1976. I am just getting to the point in Symbolic where the theme list is used to elaborate a BestMove goal. Unlike at least some themantic programs, multiple themes may be generated and elaborated instead of betting the farm on picking the right theme first time, every time.
