 I feel that I have a good grasp of the majority of the
 grammar, but my vocabulary is only expanding slowly.
 As a result, I can't find a way of saying:
 
     If I had a million pounds/dollars/kroner
         then I'd be rich.
 
 I guess what I want to say is:
 
     Regardless of the truth value of A,
         (A => B)  is a valid assertion.
 
 Where:   A = ( I have a million million pounds )
 and  :   B = ( mi ricfu )
 
 
 Yes?
