Because the city governor said so. That's a bit of a right turn. Once again, I'm tempted to bring in aliens at this point or something equally bizarre. :-) BTW, there's something similar at http://lojban.org/texts/original/lojban_story/story/story.pl (which I noticed when I went looking for it was broken; .u'u) It mails the main list when people contribute. Anyways: .i .y. ki'a ru'e xu le turni cu stidi lo nu mi na terpa le catra Umm, huh? Does the mayor suggest I not fear the killer? .i go'i .i le turni cu cusku lo se du'u lo pulji cu ba zi kavbu cy Yes. The mayor says the police will soon capture him/her. Heh. In the first version I had "pulji" instead of "police" above, which was somewhat unhelpful. :-) "lo pulji" appear rather a lot in the most recent chapter of la nicte cadzu, so it's a word I know pretty well now. -Robin -- http://www.digitalkingdom.org/~rlpowell/ *** http://www.lojban.org/ Reason #237 To Learn Lojban: "Homonyms: Their Grate!"
