Which completely reverses the meaning; "all" vs. "none"; you caught
that, yeah?

Good, cuz I waz gonna. :)

I actually pretty much figured it out, which is a good sign I think.
I prefer using causals for this sort of construct, though;

  mi zmadu se pluka se mu'i lo nu da'i de'u se krasi li'o

As a style comment, the ".e nai zo'e" seems pretty pointless; either
say what you mean (".e nai lo'u da'a no lo le'u") or skip it.
