clarification on the use of fragments

All,

For some reason I keep hearing people inferring that if you use 
fragments you must for some reason put all your descriptions of things / 
resources in a single "file".

I'd just like to confirm that couldn't be further from the truth if it 
tried.

/resources/Foo
/resources/Bar
/resources/Baz

/Foo#t
/Bar#t
/Baz#t

However, with #fragments you can *optionally* put the description of one 
or more "things" in a single "file"

/things#foo
/things#bar
/Baz#t

Fragments allow you to be as verbose or as terse as you like with your 
data. This is particularly useful for logically grouping related 
resources, for instance in ones FOAF profile you may have:

/bob#me
/bob#certificate
/bob#assistant

But you most certainly are not constrained to putting the descriptions 
of all your things in one "file", that's about as ridiculous as it sounds.

Best,

Nathan
