Re: Collective: definition
And OK, the rice was a bad example. It's retracted. I still think the
indivisible tuple is useful--- that a Lojbanmass allows the reading
{piroloi == pimuloi today, pimuloi tomorrow}, and that the collective
blocks it. But bringing rice and eating into it was a spectacular
misstep.
