Yes, it clearly identifies rocks, to geologists ;-)

But seriously, do you really think it's well known, outside of the "web
2.0" community?

I might poll some people round the office (where most people's
primiary interests biology, conservation and ecology) and see what
they think. I'm going to make a guess that they'll say "geography" or
"geographical".

I don't think the intention is that the raw markup of a uF be
"human-readable first".

This is a good point; what, exactly, should be "human readable first?"
I always assumed it was the rendered output of the HTML, rather than
the markup itself. Is this correct?
