  - getCoreOntology
```
public static Ontology getCoreOntology()
```
    Get the Ontology that defines our core "central dogma".
    This contains definitions that we have to have, such as any, predicate, is-a and transient. These are our axioms, upon which the default interpreters build.
    
    Returns:
    
    the "core" Ontology
  - getIntegerOntology
```
public static IntegerOntology getIntegerOntology()
```
    Get the Ontology that defines integers.
    This contains a term for each and every integer. I haven't decided yet if it contains terms for arithmatic.
    
    Returns:
    
    the integer Ontology
  - getDefaultFactory
```
