Re: SPARQL syntax proposals

A not concerning an old-ish message from EricP:

[[
>bNodes are interpreted as unique, unreferencable variables.
>SELECT ?who WHERE { ?who :brother [ in Army ], :mother [ in Navy] . }
>(same as            ?who :brother ?b.
>                     ?b in Army.
>                     ?who :mother ?m.
>                     ?m in Navy              )
]]

While I'm personally comfortable with using N3-style ';' and ',', I think 
this example demonstrates a potential source of confusion (also raised 
elsewhere by Steve Harris). I think that the ',' should be a ';'.
