Oops, my bad!!

I will send a reorganized list a little later today.


In this email I will comment on those Atom types that I
think can be removed (and thus will not be there in my reorganized list).

I include them just in the remote chance that someone receiving
this email knows what they are for...

...

I have no idea what these are/were used for, but I suspect that
if they are not used in the PetBrain, then they are useless now:

I believe this is not used and can be removed

PART_OF_LINK <- ORDERED_LINK

(we will deal with "part-of relationships" in some more sophisticated way).

I think all these are obsolete

I know these are obsolete:

This is soooooo obsolete, it's funny to see it again ... it has been
obsolete since 2002 or maybe 2001 ...

I doubt these will be needed:
