At current placeholder for http://mindswap.org, one of the sponsored "Top
Links" category is "Semantic Dementia". I thought it was some weird
concatenation generated by obscure Google Adsense algorithms, but I
discovered it's indeed a well-known syndrom
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semantic_dementia
"SD patients often present with the complaint of word-finding difficulties.
Clinical signs include fluent aphasia
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluent_aphasia>, anomia
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anomia>, impaired comprehension of word
meaning."
Seems an hopeless case
"There is currently no known curative treatment for this condition.
Supportive care is essential in what is a greatly debilitating problem."

More seriously now :)

This is the best of worlds, but in semantic dementia you will not find that
any more

That's the only way when <#this> has gone astray. But finding <#this> in
the data, how do I GET <SomeDocURL.ttl> ?
Simon pointed the case of lemon, which changed URI, but the change is
documented only at the new URI http://www.lemon-model.net/

Sure. If I find the triple <SomeDocURL.ttl> xhv:describes <#this> in some
trustable source I can hopefully make sense of it by following my nose into
<SomeDocURL.ttl>, but I have to find this semantic needle first in the data
haystack ...

Best regards
