For my project, I would like to hopefully focus on thinking/decision making (lightly touched on in my book for the midterm, Six Degrees: The Science of A Connected Age by Duncan Watts).     To make this a reality, I'm postulating that I would have to make a set of choices for the turtles to work with later.  As we talked about in class, I'm thinking of adding a snap-decision method where the turtles didnt have to go through a long choosing process.  The snap-decision method would be based on a few criteria.  Opposingly, the critical thinking method would be one based on many kinds of criteria and recursively it could have little methods inside the big critical thinking method that helps it to its greater goal of making a decision.

I'm considering adding something which can determine how successful the model was in making its decisions.  I have yet to decide what exactly this is and how it could interact with the model.

I intend to go much further with this than I explained here, but for now, these are my thoughts.
