Is this information essential? I don't know. I guess I am first concerned about mistakes here. The two things that seemed odd were that the page would show structure the database doesn't have (I assumed that the pages were generated from the database), and that the page didn't agree with the database (at least as reflected by the OWL) wrt which neuron cells were which, which would seem to indicate that there is an error on the page, or in the database. If the distinction between principal and interneuron isn't important then perhaps it shouldn't appear in the ontology. -Alan
