It seems to me that "_:s rdf:subject _:s" is not a self referencing triple. In fact I dont's see how you could even write a self referencing triple in RDF at all, since RDF does not even provide for triples to have an identity. In the example above "_:s" is the identity of the thing of type Statement, not the identity of the triple. Help, I'm confused ? Seth Russell
