I had a thought earlier today.  How would someone say "nevermind" in lojban?

As in the following:

bob: "did you pick up the milk?"
alice: "what did you say?"
bob (having found it): "nevermind?"
I suggest {su}.  It means "erase to beginning of discourse"; or, more colloquially, "forget the whole thing".
