-The traditional relevance filter, called \emph{MePo}, assigns a score to every
-available fact (lemma, theorem, definition, or axiom) based upon how many
-constants that fact shares with the conjecture. This process iterates to include
-facts relevant to those just accepted. The constants are weighted to give
-unusual ones greater significance. MePo copes best when the conjecture contains
-some unusual constants; if all the constants are common, it is unable to
-discriminate among the hundreds of facts that are picked up. The filter is also
-memoryless: It has no information about how many times a particular fact has
-been used in a proof, and it cannot learn.

+\item[\labelitemi] \textbf{\textit{mepo}:}
+The traditional memoryless MePo relevance filter.

+\item[\labelitemi] \textbf{\textit{mash}:}
