The first should read "There is a resource (which I'm not supplying an global identifier for right here), an Instance, and it has an identifier that's a URI." "_:bnode1" is an identifier, it's just a scoped identifier (limited to the current dataset / file). Think of it as like a file:/// or a http://localhost/ URI; very useful for internal processes and processing, but not to be shown in public. cheers stuart
