In one Thread...

***********Bullard, Claude L (Len)  said***********

Standard vocabularies for domains were pretty well 
understood by scholastics in the middle ages.  That 
wasn't AI.  It was common sense.

The W3C standardizes common sense.  Film at 11.

and in another...

***********Robin Berjon said*************************

The first sentence of http://www.w3.org/DesignIssues/Interpretation.html 
is "The semantic web is a computer system, a distributed 
machine which should function so as to perform socially 
useful tasks". This doesn't tell us what it is, but the
emphasis on "socially" is imho important.

*******************************************************

Why would anyone want a organization which has proven to 
be less than clear in their recommendations to lead the way 
to a "Semantic Web" which should provide clarity and understanding
through the use of semantical links of some design?
