I had read an extra {joi} someplace and thought you'd put them all into one
biiig mass, but I understood it anyway.  Actually, I'd hoped you would use
something clever with {ce'o} and {pi'u} and/or a termset or something.  I
thought of suggesting it, but realized I couldn't pull it off right either
(I need to read up on termsets again).
