[R] reference for a fortune quote

[Rajarshi Guha]

Hi, there is a quote in the fortunes package:

To paraphrase provocatively, `machine learning is statistics minus any
checking
of models and assumptions'.
   -- Brian D. Ripley (about the difference between machine learning and
      statistics)
      useR! 2004, Vienna (May 2004)


Was this statement made in a presentation? If so, would it be possible
to get a reference for the presentation?

Thanks,
