I don't have time to write much now, but I got a request for information on the Prisoner's Dilemma problem, so I did a web search, and found an interesting sounding paper at <URL: http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~smucker/ipd-cr/ipd-cr.html>. I have not read it yet, but according to the web page this adds to the traditional PD simulations the feature that participants can choose whom to interact with (rather than having to interact with everyone or with a random other program). Maybe "reputation" would be more important in such a simulation since the element of choice seems to be one of the key areas where reputation matters. I'll try to read the paper over the holidays, but it sounds like it might be relevant. Hal
