Re: [httpRange-14] What do HTTP URIs Identify?

/ Tim Berners-Lee <timbl@w3.org> was heard to say:
| If you go with Roy's idea that the URI identifies the car,
| then you have no URI left for the document.

Try though I might (on a Monday morning, granted) I can't make this
work in my head.

http://nwalsh.com/people/ndw/images/ndw is a picture of me.
Dereferencing it returns a representation of that picture of me.

http://nwalsh.com/people/ndw/images/truck is my car.
Dereferencing it returns a representation of that car.

I don't see how "a picture of me" is any more-or-less a document
abstractly than "my car".

Sometimes I think this makes sense and sometimes I don't.
