Gama, Here is my cleaned-up Atom type list, with stuff that I think is obsolete removed, and the remaining stuff categorized more sensibly.
It is possible I removed some stuff that still has a use, but I doubt it. I did remove a few other things beyond what I indicated in my previous email -- Ben ***** ATOM NODE <- ATOM LINK <- ATOM // Basic Nodes CONCEPT_NODE <- NODE NUMBER_NODE <- NODE // Basic Links ORDERED_LINK <- LINK UNORDERED_LINK <- LINK // Basic sets SET_LINK <- UNORDERED_LINK SUBSET_LINK <- ORDERED_LINK LIST_LINK <- ORDERED_LINK MEMBER_LINK <- ORDERED_LINK // Boolean Set operations and related ideas.
