One of the good points about the XML adventure was that 
it forced the markup community to explain itself and its 
ideas in clearer speak.  Unfortunately since then, that 
group has been replaced with new wonks who have reguilded 
the lily or in newspeak, added their own cybergrafitti. 
This sort of activity is mostly a power play but
that is life among the mammals.

Thanks, Len,

While you might not have actually deduced it, but, at some point in 
time, if my own plans to conquer the known universe are to continue, 
I will have to teach business analysis (minus MBA-speak) to artists, 
AND programmers, and 3D, creative communications, and programming to 
business people (including MBAs), so this is quite instructive.

Ciao,
Rex
