I know what this is getting at (and I know why "thingies" is being
used), but on the other hand, you've got to admit the humor in a bare
reading of this, which suggests we're going to clarify the semantics of
RDF by mapping its concepts to "thingies" (or groupings of them). I
thought before that "resource" was a little vague. I'm glad we're
clearing that up! :-)

PS: An OMG committee many years ago used "frogs" for very much the same
reasons.
