Ah, ok, my misunderstanding. I thought that you had created http://ontologi.es/WordNet/data/Fool because all fool synsets were very similar, and not http://ontologi.es/WordNet/data/Crack because there would be too different meanings below that one. But now that I've seen that http://ontologi.es/WordNet/data/Crack in fact exists, I infer that you've created them for all these possible groups of synsets.

Thanks,
