Looks like the word list repository's links are broken. The FTP site
returns a 404 - file not found for all dictionaries I've tried.
However, I managed to use the
sunspot-wireless-voodoo-universal-multi-platform exploit to find a
workaround. To prevent from going OT, you will need to parse this perl
snip-it to figure out how do the correct URL transformation to find the
dictionary you are looking for:
s,ftp://puzzlers.org/,http://www.puzzlers.org/anonftp/,;
example input data:
ftp://puzzlers.org/pub/wordlists/roget.txt
Hmm... maybe I should email the web admin. Naa - they never listen to
me.
BTW - I've used perl to solve a couple wesun puzzles about 4 years ago
and my emails were ignored, too. No one ever listens to me.

The worked examples are available *at least temporarily* in the "hidden" area
(spiderproofed? /x/ dir is scan-only, not readable)
http : // world.std.com / ~wdr/ x/wesun/WESun.html
So paste together to make a working url -- so the Archivers don't make it a
spiderable link.
This is my temporary location ... so please don't link to it. If someone wants
a permanent archive for this, let's talk about where etc.
The first page includes the link to the word-list repository.
I've added some comments from tonight, but not re-run the scripts with
suggested changes. To Sleep, per chance to dream!
Would someone please repeat the several references mentioned to other semantic
web projects besides the Thesaurus modules I listed?
Bill
