I assumed the resource identification here was (very loosely) like saying 'that bag of peanuts' - the peanuts inside are an implicit characteristic of the thing identified, even though you might not be able to see them. Perhaps you could contrast RDF's approach with another (OWL 1.1's?) which doesn't overload? Cheers, Danny. -- http://dannyayers.com
