You spell your first name differently than .erek. reimnd.
That's a relief! I sometimes find the process of transliterating directly
from English into lojban just a little too heartbreaking. In this case,
I used my French name and didn't have to mangle anything!

No, I refuse to sit on my computer. Anyhow, I think his name is
spelled saimn.
Not the way *I* spell it..which is according to the Greek pronunciation.
(I guess the Hebrew original would be "cimon.".)
