    Wow, Thanks for all the feedback. I usually dont get any replies to my
    queries, now it seems that a full fledged discussion has been spawned. I am
    going to look into the knowledge representation and ontologies. I am loath
    however to have anything to do with the web. It seems to me that every
    couple of years TBL comes up with something new, each time it comes with
    promises of the new world order in distributed information. I read what he
    said about RDF and it sounded like the same thing everyone said about XML,
    and SGML before that and HTML before that. I mean nobody even followed the
    standard for HTML so why should they for RDF. It seems to me that until
    there is one standard (one that is actively enforced) for the representation
    of knowledge that the semantic web won't get past syntax (pun intended).
    Anyway is there any web pages about these triples. Anytime I search for
    ontologies and such I come to RDF and XML.

    Thanks Again
