Of course, it does make some sense to have a more famous text sample.

Consequently, Zhang Hong, the webmaster, has announced (to me) eir intent to
change it to "xirli'u selsanga". So don't worry about it.

I sent em XS because it is quite well-known, has never been criticized, even
worngly, contains no fu'ivla (so all obviously lojban words to a Lojbanist),
and is a mildly well-knonw text outside of Lojbanistan. Plus I didn't have
to look up the text.

* kreig is also pondering making a .sig out of the great Zappa quote, "There
is nothing I would like more than to have a jellyfish named after me."
<clsn> That does sound like a great goal.
