During a brief transition time I will use the phrase "LLG Loglan" so as to 
distinguish it from TLI Loglan or Jim Carter's Loglan. I trust that this will 
soon become unnecessary. If others use the word "Loglan" I will interpret that 
as being LLG Loglan unless they explicitly describe it as TLI Loglan.
