      <![CDATA[ <p>Parsing the distinctions among these terms is an exercise in frustration, especially when you have to explain the subtle differences to people who don't use such jargon on a day to day basis. </p>

<p>It reminds me of a local series of ads that a grocery store chain ran in the Washington DC area many years ago. The tag line was something like, "From our family to your family." </p>

<p>Referring to employees of a humongous corporate chain of businesses as a "family" makes as much sense as referring to the people who register at your web site as a "community!" </p> ]]>
