Heavy OIL > and GRUNT. I won't say what that sounds like. FYI: OIL was originally developed in the context of the European IST-project "OnToKnowledge" (http://www.ontoknowledge.org/). Later, it was merged with DAML to create DAML+OIL, which actually inherited a lot of the ideas behind the original OIL. I don't think DAML+OIL should be considered the result of yet another fancy military project.
