An imaginary family consisting of Fred and Mary Bloggs and their
children. Used as a standard example in knowledge representation to
show the difference between extensional and intensional objects. For
example, every occurrence of "Fred Bloggs" is the same unique person,
whereas occurrences of "person" may refer to different people.
Members of the Bloggs family have been known to pop up in bizarre
places such as the old {DEC} Telephone Directory. Compare {Dr. Fred
Mbogo}; {J. Random Hacker}; {Fred Foobar}.
