<p>Which is obviously bunk, since <b>rojmoHwI'</b> is a pretty easy
word to figure out. Maybe he means the word didn't become a meme
until Riva. <b>(va... qatlh mu'vetlh lulo'taH Hoch ghotpu'? naH

Which is obviously also bunk, since by that measure English doesn’t have a word for “peacemaker” either, since “peacemaker” is obviously just “peace” + “maker”.</div></body></html>
