Or perhaps how to take a lot of talk (or papers) and mine it for strict 
or fuzzy categories that a computer could use, e.g. software like 
http://www.opencyc.org

I think that common sense knowledge and reasoning (above) combined with 
careful ontological coding work by librarians and domain experts is a 
necessary feature for automated learning of useful abstract categories  
from scientific texts (and in turn scientific semantic web applications)
