Hi Bene,

Yes, I have played with a few of the SPARQL endpoints.  Interesting things
sometimes do popup excitedly unexpected. I like those. But many assumptions
have to be made in certain corner cases.  But that why I have a brain, to
make my own internal DAG whenever I need. :)

ALL,
Thanks for those additional suggestions and tips on filtering
claims/statements.
