Exactly why RDF excites me :-)

BTW - Everything is headed this way due to the "Concrete Conceptual 
Model" meme from Microsoft. Most Web Services sit atop, or expose, this 
model, Apple's had it since NeXT etc.. Thus, if we could conjure and 
demonstrate an RDF based model that pulls everything together we take 
another step closer to the inevitable RDF epiphany :-) Of course the 
epiphany will be under guise of some new buzzword etc..
