I exist and I don't in the same area?

From these parts of Dorset, Yorkshire sometimes seems foreign enough.

Thanks. That did make sense. It is what I was kind of assuming. DMOZ, from the database perspective, might be a little out of sync with the editor data and public data but the main issue is how the data is used by the search engines.
The search engines seem to take the data piecemeal and at odd tiem intervals so you never know what relationship on data set has to another. The upshot of this is that I need to quit trying to make patterns out of chaos. Accept wht happens with the search engines and just live with the non-linearity of time.
Thanks for the short and sweet splain.

Not in here, it's not. The main issue here is how we create the data. (We understand other people may have some other concerns, like how the search engines work, and what to eat for dinner, and how best to deal with terrorism...but there are other venues for those discussions.)

;) However, if you'd like to create a small pool of order in the middle of the rushing flood, consider becoming an editor. I think that's why most of us are here. :)
