    I found this interesting little piece by chance when exploring Karl
    Schroeder's webpage (http://www.kschroeder.com/):
    http://tersesystems.com/post/400060.jhtml

    Some relevant thoughts to the thread about search engines and semantic
    webs, as well as the problems with communicating with AI.

    BTW, I like Karl Schroeders books, they have plenty of well thought out
    ideas worth exploring. His somewhat pessimistic prognosis for intelligent
    life in _Permanence_ is intriguing. And I think _Ventus_ is a wonderful
    example of how to (not?) do terraforming.
