 ago..."
[]  Pangloss says, "And we had taken her to be...well, less than attentive and
 polite."

[]  Pangloss [to musEleanor]: We are sorry for that misunderstanding.
[]  Pangloss would like to take this moment to express the most profound sense
 of repentance for misunderstanding.

 pages.."

 themselves to spell out the acronyms?

 ways of breathing. We have an audience to think of.

[]  musEleanor says, "THEY want to think?"
[]  Pangloss [to musEleanor]: Perhaps your 'opaqueness' is one of the reasons

 Edgar Rice Burroughs...ERB merely recorded Tarzan's learning to read?
[]  Pangloss says, "BOY BOY BOY BOY?"
[]  musEleanor says, "Another fact he learnedthat there were comparatively few
 individual bugs; "

 and a strange animal which went upon four legs like the jackal and resembled
 him not a little."

 its their own fucking fault..."

 could not have been her real name..."
