 ### DESCRIPTION
 
-SimpleKit-ruby is a very minimal Ruby implementation of discrete event
-simulation based on Lee Schruben's "Event Graph" approach.  I wrote it
-to illustrate to CS students how simulation works.  You are welcome to
-use it as long as you clearly understand that it was designed as a
-teaching tool.  For serious simulation modeling with event graphs I
-recommend Lee Schruben's SIGMA package or Arnie Buss's SimKit.
