I guess what bothers me in this whole discussion is that all of the
complaints and arguments against SQL2 being a reasonable idea could be
leveled at the interlingua and KR standards effort.  Based on the small
number of experiments in large-scale KR (e.g., CYC) I doubt that we
have enough evidence to comfortably set standards that will actually
be useful over a long period.
