My point in the last email was simply that the bodies that set up 
web-related standards call URLs URIs. I'm not telling someone that they 
should call it a vehicle instead of a car. I'm telling them that when 
they go to look for car dealerships in the phone book, they should look 
under Automobile Dealers because that's what the people that make the 
phone book call them.
