the advantage of simplicity

One of the things I like about SWI-Prolog is that it's a simple, transparent system.

There's a minimum of behind the scenes 'magic' - which is pretty amazing for a language with so much 
magic in it.  Which means it can be robust in unusual circumstances.

I was reminded of this this morning. Last night our power went out, and I 'hibernated' my windows machine.
This morning I got up , did the restore, and reloaded the localhost served page, and other than the sessions timing out 
(which they should have) it was happy.

This is also an advantage when running SWI-Prolog in crazy embedded places.
