This is indeed easier than cut-and-paste of the image name into Word--I'm glad it was doable for you.

And I even almost understood it. I have this terrible suspicion that I might be Image, though I can't figure out who Image is. Not you, of course, and not Marc, who's "Spot"--Jadelennox? She'd be the logical other person, but I'm not sure why she'd be "Rikchik-Rock".

As I recently pointed out (http://www.livejournal.com/users/cnoocy/33089.html), the "M"odifier aspect of "Rikchik" means "Green". When words are turned into "N"ames, their former aspects are erased, making it hard to tell the difference between the human named "long weapon" and the human named "long fight" or even "long fighter". Fortunately, one of those is more obviously correct.

Greenstone? Do I know a Greenstone?

No, but you know a green stone: Jade.

Ah. Even in a livejournal context, I don't think of her as Jade at all, so.

I can think of a green mineral.

Someone explain?

I believe he said that the person named Long-Fight and the person named Rikchik-Rock want to see human-words below rikchik-words, and Denis thus provides that. (See the "captioned" and the "captioned-and-diagrammed" links.)

Yeah, and it kind of scares me. Of course, in this case the medium was the message: it would have been a lot harder to understand Message X if the content of Message X was more than "Message X exists." :-)

Well, we'll see how you do on my next post. Of course, that may not be for a month...
