It would be nice to have some quetchua member that tries this. (Andine language with 57 consonants, only spoken. To open a business in Lima, Peru you had to pass an exam in the local language, I do not know now. Comma 22 is a children game compared to their ways)

In any case your work is very useful. It helps in defining better the likelihood. Once you have that, plus the percentage of tricks (yes or no, regardless by the book being any good), plus the percentage of books (good or nogood, just to make it simple, also regardless of the trick result), I can show you, with the aid of very simple formula, how to obtain the increase of information that the trick gives to a potential buyer. Nothing is certain in presence of Chaos, but as it is the agent of Destiny, it is good to follow the gifts it gives us. Like this trick. It sounds a little like Let it be.
