Hi All,
Reading this page: http://wiki.opencog.org/w/Getting_Started

Great concise introduction. I like to believe that this is ALL there really 
is to opencog, i,e the atoms, the atomspace, and mind-agents, and that 
any/every-thing that manifests out of opencog in all its variants, is the 
result of mind-agents interacting with the atomspace. The wiki also does 
say:

*There are two main types of atoms <http://wiki.opencog.org/w/Atom>, nodes 
> <http://wiki.opencog.org/w/Node> and links 
> <http://wiki.opencog.org/w/Link>, and atoms can have further sub-types, 
> such as being directed .....*


*Question 1.* To be unequivocally clear, are atoms really ONLy of the two 
types: i.e. Nodes and Links? Are all other atoms sub-type of one of these 
former types? 

There's another section that goes as follows:
 

>
> *Interacting with the AtomSpaceAll atoms referred to by Handles 
> <http://wiki.opencog.org/w/Handle>.*
>    
>    - *TLB - converts handles into pointers to atoms and check validity of 
>    a handle.*
>
>
>    - *AtomSpace <http://wiki.opencog.org/w/AtomSpace> - API for interface 
>    to the hypergraph, getHandleSet methods, getType.*
>
>
>    - *AtomTable <http://wiki.opencog.org/w/AtomTable> - an implementation 
>    of atom storage, several indexes to ensure fast lookup by type and 
>    importance. Shouldn't need to be accessed directly.*
>
> *Question 2.* What is TLB ? Is it some form of an opencog entity, or a 
software artifact ? Could use some clarification here.

Thanks. Feel free to explain at any depth.
