By the way, one thing to remember about writing blogs is that people  
may be arriving
at your blog from anywhere. So they don't have context. It is  
important therefore to decontextualise as far as possible what you  
are writing. This is not easy.  (RDF does this by using URIs)

So in your post above, it is not at all clear what query language  
your are using, what tools you are using. I recognise a bit of SPARQL  
in there. Anyway, if I knew it probably would not help me.

Which lines in particular?
