totus, that spreadsheet is exactly what I was trying to get to! If
anyone else could comment, we could transform into some nice graphical
format.

alyn, I think that using emotionals is important here. Consider that
emotionals can be attached to other words, they refer to the speker
only when used at the beginning of a sentence, so it may make sense to
use an emotional instead of describe the same think with a brivla.

I'll go looking at totus spreadsheet more carefully ... Thanks!
