Augmentation of the mind is another nonsense theory from SRI.
Closely followed by similar theories from MIT.
The end result of the theory is OWL. 
What caps the OWL series? God?
All that augmentation has achieved is obesity of the mind.
When will Systems designers realise that it, pragmatism, does not work.
Sure, immediate success are not to be denied, but the body corporate is just getting fatter and more unwieldy.
So much so that the immediate success becomes lost.
Smalltalk80 is facing the same danger.
Refactoring and Normalisation techniques are merely remedies not a cure.
The mind does not need augmentation, least of all by computers.
The very phrase "Back to the Future" is as much a nonsense as the phrase  "Inventing it".
"Back to sound Principles" is far better.
