My x-wife's mother and her husband were close friends of Bob Bemer.
Although we always planned a get together, I never had a chance to meet
Bob. I guess that's how marriages go these days. (03)

Would you happen to have a pointer to a technical specification of the
TR instruction ? You've mentioned this a few times and it seems quite
relevant to the ontolog-forum. (05)
