Re: [lojban] Re: Le Petit Prince: Can we legally translate it?



How does that work, being in Baker Street last Saturday, in 1895?

I had supposed pc to be saying that he was in the Sherlock Holmes
museum last Saturday on his summer hols (221 is a bank & -- iirc -- didn't 
exist in the 1890s).

It wouldn't have helped.  You see, he was in Baker Street *in 1895*.
