        This project depends on NLTK.  You will need to install it before running these scripts.
        
        To run tests:
        
            python tests.py
        
        To run factchecker demo, try this:
        
            python factchecker.py "The sky is not blue."
        
        or this:
        
            python factchecker.py "People never eat fish. Goldfish are unpopular."
        
        This test a document against the Simple English Wikipedia
        articles for each word in the tested document.  Try
        replacing test-factchecker.txt with your own text file!
        
        (Warning: documents with long sentences take longer to query)
        
        Scripts included:
        
        ### parse.py
        
        Defines Document class for wrapping raw text and Parser
        class for extracting Relations from a Document.
        
        Relations encapsulate a semantically significant lexical
        cooccurence.
        
        Documents have a method to turn them into Doxaments (see below).
        
        ### doxament.py
        
        Defines a Doxament class.  A Doxament contains many Relations.
        A Doxament may be queried for consistency with another Doxament.  They may also be merged to form a more complete knowledge base.
