Yes. that makes sense. Is there a tecnique for linking html tag (or xml)
to external rdf document. something like

<tag rdf:Document="http://mysite/my.rdf" 
rdf:ResourceDescription="http://mysite/resource1">ugh</tag>

where rdf:ResourceDescription would be existing description in my.rdf

I personally think this embedding rdf data into a web page is kind of messy.

thanks,

"There are lots of myths that people have around issues of beauty and 
attraction, and part of the issue is to stop thinking about things in terms 
of myth, but to use the tools of neuroscience, and start dissecting and 
understanding how things actually function," said Dr. Hans Breiter, a 
psychiatrist and co-author of the study."
