But to whom are those guttural pronunciations (like "Me like
this! Guh!) being made? Presumably they are in some
context of utterance, and that is where we get the
"recommendedTo" arc. So you see it's already inherent in
our natural expressions.

Yes definitely. For example: say we have only Opus1 and it
excites us ... we're interested .. we want to bite .. we
want to know more. But off of this Opus1 node in our simWeb
we have no clue where to go. So we climb backwards on the
symWeb .. we ask:

[?:y#Recomendations, rdf:li, Opus1]
[?:y#Recomendations, recomendedTo , ?:z#Group]

then list the ?:z#Group (s) and go read their archives.

I guess that's one way to do it.

Not really I just forgot to put the <a href="?:future#url">
on the hyperlinks and you don't have the
future:symWebBrowser plugin.
