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.daniyl. * 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." That does sound like a great goal. ragnarok@pobox.com teucer@bnomic.org
