Ontolog is neither a book club, nor a social network. It is possible
that this is a great book (although making that conclusion after 20
pages for an almost 400 page book may seem a little premature) but
that is *not relevant* ... the way you brought it up, and how far it
is removed from our chartered discussion, just makes you post "noise'
rather than "signal."

Can't you detect the similarity in the way you made this post with
example (A) in my earlier request (ref.
http://ontolog.cim3.net/forum/ontolog-forum/2010-01/msg00207.html#nid07
), a M.O. which I was imploring the community to try to avoid, so we
can improve on the signal-to-noise ratio on this forum?

I am certain this will be of interest to some people, and is a very
appropriate post in a different setting ... so, *please*, take this,
and other similar conversation of yours elsewhere.


Thanks in advance.  =ppy
