I think the creators went off in two directions from the Porifera and failed to reconcile them. The emphasis is clearly on the porous, though,. I suppose that Porifera are {panje danlu}, "spongy critters" or whatever fu'ivlos out of {danlu porifera}. Individual corals and certain coral structures are not very beholed, but at least some types of coral reefs are -- as well as some other coral structures (brains, e.g.). Maybe that is a further ground for the slide. --part1_8b.1c158ef1.2a81afa2_boundary Content-Type: text/html; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit In a message dated 8/6/2002 3:33:10 PM Central Daylight Time, phma@webjockey.net writes:

Maybe it means "mostly untravelling spineless critters in oceans," but that doesn't cover the general "porous material" sense (does holystone count?) .  I think the creators went off in two directions from the Porifera and failed to reconcile them.  The emphasis is clearly on the porous, though,.  I suppose that Porifera are {panje danlu}, "spongy critters" or whatever fu'ivlos out of {danlu porifera}.  Individual corals and certain coral structures are not very beholed, but at least some types of coral reefs are -- as well as some other coral structures (brains, e.g.).  Maybe that is a further ground for the slide.
