Heh. From my markup-centric perspective, RDF is ugly, high-level, and
excessively charged with meaning encoded so abstractly as to be nearly
cryptographic. Oh, and it's painfully constraining since it can't
figure out how to deal with mixed content, a common human construct.
Just couldn't resist...
