    The question of benefits of ontologies is an
important one that probably will influence future
funding for ontologies.  I am looking at possibilities
for funding of a broadly usable upper ontology,
and if you have any information that could be
referred to in funding applications in the near
future, I would very such like to learn the
details, perhaps off-line.    (01)
