---------------

    Aquisition is not limited to searching a containment hierarchy: it
    can also search a *context hierarchy*.  Acquisition by context is
    terribly difficult to explain, and you should avoid it if
    possible.  However, if you want more information about aquiring
    via a context and you are ready to have your brain explode, please
    see the presentation named "Acquisition
    Algebra":http://www.zope.org/Members/jim/Info/IPC8/AcquisitionAlgebra/index.html.

       Well, a presentation is not an explanation. I don't understand anything of this acquisition algebra, and it
       definitely does not help that I can't get access to the example.
