Aargh! Look I really don't mind anyone arguing with my hasty whimsical comments
on metadata. And I've been off the email for the last ten minutes trying to
find a link to Steve's paper. (Where is it?!)
BUT, as someone who drove home from the Hitchhikers film yesterday telling my
partner that Douglas Adams and Jim Henson were my two biggest formative
influences (I even went to see Douglas Adams do some readings years ago) I'm
miffed about all this h2g2 stuff: I know most people call it that!!! I love it
whatever you want to call it! Glad so many other people do too.
Ok, now where's the RESULTS paper, I'm going to learn something new today.
