"It's really cool; the inventors made it seem that after the
putting, there was modifying into something from which the doers
were removed."

i.e. "The people who made up the records also made it look like the
records were altered to hide who put the nuclear waste here".  I do
remember having some trouble with that sentence, so if it's really
totally incomprehensible, I'll try to re-work it again.

Doers of putting, so "who put the sign here"?

lu mi tugni .i ku'i pu ku mi cmibi'o li'u ju'e

"Yep.  But that was long before my time.

Isn't it the other way around?
<before> {<> ku}, mi cmibi'o

lu .u'i ru'e li'a sai li'u

"Heh.  No shit."

I understand these things in Lojban better. :-)
