+1!

Everyone is going to arrange the pieces a little or a lot differently.

My goal was to get a discussion going about those pieces in general, 
even if we don't agree all the pieces or where they go.

Knowing where you put the pieces in your application or process is going 
to help me explain to someone why to choose your solution over another one.

Or quite honestly, to use good ideas you have for explaining modeling to 
users for my own. ;-)

Thanks!

Actually I think RDF is being held up by its criteria for being 
decidable. Few things in human data systems are.

I may have a logic contest some time soon to see how many people use 
various forms of logic in the average day.

Suspect the numbers are going to be really low.

If that suspicion is correct, why bother encoding our data into a system 
we don't use ourselves?

Hope you are having a great week!

Patrick
