Even after reading up a bit on the subject, I'm still not very sure about
how semantic nets are related to first-order logic, and I have a few
questions (I'm more familiar with FOL than with SNs)

Is FOL strictly more expressive than SNs?

Can FOL be limited so that the result will be isomorphic to SNs, and if so,
what would be the isomorphism?

FOL is to Prolog, as SN is to ... ?
