Tim,

I found your Sun Tsu analysis interesting.  I have been thinking that
I would eventually write a content mathml package for Axiom partly
because of discussions I've seen here.  However I have also wondered
"why bother, i.e. why not just let Axiom handle the semantics?"  Now
you've added a new (for me) slant.  Do you think content mathml would
amount to a Trojan horse?
