Strictly that is the intersection of the set {mi,do} with something that would not normally be a set. "Someone/thing other than you" is not really the complement of the one member set {do}. Perhaps: mi ce do ku'a lu'i ro na'e bo do You need a set to intersect with another set. (I don't understand how {to'e} could possibly work here.) co'o mi'e xorxes _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.
