You see, that's the part I've already done.  I enter a set of categories
for each article, and the program creates all the cross-references along
with the author index and magazine index.  But what ARE the actual
subjects?  There's a dozen or more main categories (chemistry, culturing,
history, aquascaping, lighting, CO2, fertilization, etc), and probably
hundreds of subcategories.  So recognizing that one already has
"aquascaping, Nature Aquarium Style" before inventing "aquascaping, Amano"  
is a bit of a trick...
