Was that original post sent to the list? I never received it, nor was it in my spam filter.

A student has "several" books in his bag. Another student has only two.
The first student has [law'] and the other student has [puS].
He goes in to a library. Even though he still has "several" books, he now has [puS] and the library
has [law'].
