Questions in natural language are answered by consulting multiple sources and inferring answers from information they provide. An automated deduction system, equipped with an axiomatic application-domain theory, serves as the coordinator for the process. Sources include data bases, Web pages, programs, and unstructured text. Answers may contain text or visualizations. Although the approach is domain-independent, many of our experiments have dealt with geographic questions.
