161505 - "Microcosm" is another word for "details" and organizational memory,
161506 - which further entail investing intellectual capital.
161507 - ..
161508 - The SDS program is a way to represent and arrange details so the
161509 - correleations and implications are easily absorbed, and can be quickly
161510 - accessed when needed.
