behavioral concept words

[Bob LeChevalier-Logical Language Group <lojbab@lojban.org>]

Robin Gaskell posted the following on the AUXLANG mailing list.  It isn't 
the same list, but it reminds me of the list I made up for creating the set 
of indicators.  Lojban can probably express most of these distinctions both 
as indicators  (though we have a 7 point scale instead of a 5 point one) 
and as predicates.  Anyone willing to try?
