If I indented to be useful I'd write something substantial, backed up
with stuff other than humour. I'll give that a go the next time. :)

Hmm, not a good thing at all. Could you elaborate, though, as I use it
too as part of infrastructure too, and wouldn't touch RDF / SemWeb
without a long stick? I'm into application semantics and shared
knowledge-bases. What are you guys doing where you feel the support
and tools are lacking? And what are the RDF alternatives?
