[pp.int.general] Greens saying Pirate Parties unnecessary

[Eric Priezkalns]

Is there an alternative term for the class of things which all get  
treated as property, but which lack physical substance?  As we're  
interested in reforming laws relating to that class of things, it  
would be helpful if there was a recognized shorthand for referring to  
them.
