Microchip actually has a fuzzy logic developement system - they call it
fuzzyTECH - MP.  We have it, but nobody here has used it, and  I don't
know anything about fuzzy control systems, so I can't comment on it's
potential usefulness.  The manual is copyrighted 1994, so it has been
around a while.  I scanned the introduction and was quite amused to
see the terms "fuzzification" and "defuzzification".
