What it implies is that there is something in the intersection of foaf:Person and GraphContainer. But these being disjoint has to be part of an ontology of GraphContainers rather than a *logical* axiom, I suggest. That is, we don't build this into the very semantics. >> >> Agreed.

Oh, how about...let me see... the great galaxy in Andromeda? The molecular weight of sodium? The concept of happiness? The 21st of August 1944? Avogadro's number? It might be simpler to start by listing all the things that could.
