SUO: RE: FW: ONT Re: Manifolds Of Sensuous Impressions (MOSI's)




Jim, 
	.	Thanks for this. 

	.	What are the specifications for the Ontology web address /
site:
*	scope,
*	purpose,
*	content, 
*	etc.?

	.	Who manages / administers it, and ensures compliance, etc.? 

	.	How does one unsubscribe, should I decide that is the way to
go?

Graham,

        I don't subscribe to the Ontology list.

        Also, I did not get a copy of this message at my office address,
so best to send to this address.
