Hi, Hal,

I feel we have a semantic dichotomy: using "model" in diverse meanings. As I
guess yours is a 'metaphoric compendium" some simulation of a 'total' into
usable terms from other sources,
while I use the word as a cut-off from totality, focussing on the
characteristics (content?) relevant to the study (observation, discussion),
omitting the 'not involved' connotations.
'Yours' is more comprehensive, 'mine' is incomplete, reductionistic.
