It's odd to speak of Cyc just now being commercialized -- Cycorp has been in business using Cyc as its core tech for a long time. Military contracting, among other stuff.

Which makes one wonder what exactly 'Lucid' is doing different from Cycorp Inc (1995, described in WP article for Cyc), and is exactly what the TR article doesn't cover. /sigh

I was hoping someone would come in and say this. I know that Doug Lenat doesn't go around correcting all of the articles, but the mythology of a company just building up a knowledge base with no income for 30 years is far from the truth. Cycorp used to run the Lycos search bot, which is at least 15 years back.
