You are absolutely correct - and a terrible oversight on my part!  Sorry
about that!!

Until I (or anyone) codes the getObjectDefinition, or getObjectSchema
API calls for MOBY Central you may use the small CGI script running at
MOBY Central to retrieve the object definitions and valid articleNames
in tab-delimited text format.  Surf to the MOBY homepage and click the
"Objects" link in the blue box of the left-side menubar.
