Thanks for explaining the IT definition. I had a tech person start talking aobut ontologies and as a former epistemologist, was totally confused. (Then he got talking about "developing ontologies" and I was like um, by definition, can you really develop an ontology per se?)
I await the day I hear "Ontogenizing is phylogenizing on a recapitular go-forward basis."
