Even granting these, and the rest of the stuff on that page, ralcku is a
crappy lujvo for the web because it's just not specific enough.  

ralcku could be a library.  

Almost a third of the world would probably assume that ralcku was the
Bible (that's the most important book, right?).

Another quarter would assume it was the Koran.

I mean, *come* *on*.  It means 'most important book'.  Not only is that
ridiculously ambigous *now*, it's pretty much guarnteed to become
obsoleted over time.
