It answers the objections to the previous systems... 1) it is culturally neutral, AFAIK 2) it is rational, as it relates the members of one ordered seven-cycle to another ordered seven cycle. Here is my proposal: xundei, najdei, peldei, ri'odje, cicnydei, bladei, zirdei I suggest for the sake of cultural neutrality, making the cycle start so that zirdei be Tuesday, since I was born on Tuesday and purple is my favorite color. If I was culturally un-neutral, I'd say xunday is Sunday, since that's the "start" for both cycles.... --gejyspa --=20 You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "= lojban" group.
