Re: [ontolog-forum] RDF finally has its long awaited Generic Client!

My answer to it being static is a resounding no! Nature isn't static,
neither is the progression of science, and physics and related disciplines
aren't either.
Precisely because of this, capturing the dynamics and the often
corresponding statistical or probabilistic aspects makes this quite hard.
My guess is that if I can get my hands on an up-to-date 3D mockup of the
brain with identified clusters and a full comprehensive listing of all
brain cells with their corresponding functionality, properties and links to
clusters and other types of brain cells, I can at least tweak the mandala
graph model.
This model would also be the most relevant for KR&R for AI.
