• Final Arrangements,

  “Ontology Alignment is

  
  

  the process of determining

  
  

  correspondences between concepts.”
  
  

  
  

  Online New York Times today
  
  
  
  “With a little effort,

  
  

  anything can be shown to
  connect with anything else:
  existence is infinitely

  
  

  cross-referenced.”

  
  

  – Opening sentence of
  Martha Cooley’s The Archivist
  

  
  

  “Frere Jacques, Cuernavaca,
  ach du lieber August.”
  

  
  

  – John O’Hara, Hope of Heaven, 1938
  

  
  

  
  

  And now I was beginning to surmise:
  Here was the library of Paradise.

  
  

  – Hermann Hesse, Magister Ludi 

  
  

  
  

  (For Hesse in another context,
  see the Log24 entries of
    Nov. 4-6, 2003.)
