You seem to be combining assertions about the class ("there are many students at the university") with assertions that are intended to be about some/many/all/most members of the class ("every student has taken a course covering quantifiers in knowledge representation systems"). If you want to say something about every/some/all/most/ probably-every-single-one-with-perhaps-a-few-exceptions then you need to figure out how you're going to deal with quantifiers. All automobiles have a motor, except for the ones where the motor has been taken out, perhaps because it's in the shop. Looking for quick online resources, I found http://www-sop.inria.fr/acacia/personnel/phmartin/webKB/doc/papers/webne t00/ and its reference to http://www.w3.org/DesignIssues/Toolbox.html#QuantificaReceived on Thursday, 7 February 2002 10:32:40 GMT
