"The term "perceptron", originally intended as a generic name for a variety of theoretical nerve nets, has an unfortunate tendency to suggest a specific piece of hardware, and it is only with difficulty that its well-meaning popularizers can be persuaded to suppress their natural urge to capitalize the initial "p". On being asked, "How is 'Perceptron' performing today?" I am often tempted to respond, "Very well, thank you, and how are 'Neutron' and 'Electron' behaving?""
