       I dunno if anythin's been done, but searchin MOO DB's is somethin that
    IMO, c'd *use* serious work. Findin stuff inna MOO db isn easy, an 'cause
    a that people tend ta make `new' objs 'stead a lookin up the stuff that's
    there (an defeatin the whole purpose a havin stuff be objec-oriented.)
    Anyway that's my $.02 8}
