I disagree with virtually every technical argument Ted Nelson has ever 
made and (in most cases) the implementations are on my side, but it 
doesn't matter; Ted's place in history is secure because he asked more 
important questions than just about anybody.   I think he usually 
offered the wrong answers, but questions are more important. -Tim
