I am aware of Cyc,  If anyone knows of any documented cases of Cyc being in routine use in significant industrial applications, please forward them to me. I am not aware of any.

Can anyone point to some very large ontologies that are in routine use? I

I've read that CYC is one of the largest general ontologies:
