When I finally watch the series finale, I'll know.  I guess I could look it
up in Wikipedia (well, I know Spike rejoins them but...) but that ruins the
entertainment value.

As I said elsewhere, look at ISO 10744 which is about as exhaustive a work
as I've encountered, but it isn't easy sledding, so look at what Elliot
wrote about it.

As in quantum cosmology, events have multiple histories that winnow out and
converge on one, then diverge again into multiple histories.  The reason to
leave citations is to enable those who come after the convergence to ask
more questions.  They will likely repeat history but this is better than the
waterfall method.  It is just very slow cycle iterative development.

BTW:  in personal recollection, the numbers that came down on the side of
attaching semantics via style sheets in hypertext systems was approximately
three to one.  One might ask why and the only answer I was given was it was
convenient and that might have something to do with the order of processing.

         I am -so- not dying in the series finale.

         Len, your points are well-taken. I've been doing a whole 
bunch of reading and noting citations and searching the patent 
databases...moreso than I would've if you hadn't spoken up.

         Thanks!
