It seems the forum needs not only more professional focusing on ontology but 
some patience to others positions, worldviews, and projects.    (01)

Dennis Thomas must be a good researcher, maybe, with some funny ideas about 
semantics, ontology, and knowledge. And he looks to be frank promoting his 
project as much as it is persistently done with CL, IKL, etc.
As a private investigator, he might say more interesting ideas than the cold 
and stale things one used to hear from the academic investigators.
It should be observed that most radical breakthroughs the science and 
technology expect from private researchers, like William Dobelle, who was 
the first neuroscientist, inventing an operative brain implant, a 
brain-computer interface, to restore sight, acquired blindness.

The same rule applies to fundamental ontology and its critical technological 
application, semantic web.    (02)
