Interesting.  But there was another thing to be noticed.  When using an {'e'}
construction, an adverbial comes after {'e'} and before the next verb!  I'd
expect to see {reH 'e' lunIDtaH}.  Is this just another Skybox mistake, or is
it legitimate?  In fact, is there any other example written by Marc Okrand in
which he uses an adverbial with an {'e'} sentence (besides Captain Klaa's
{reH DIvI' Duj vISuv vIneH} in ST:V, which isn't quite the same thing)?
