My Swiss translator friends have translated the second rule to Ce qui arrive est la seule chose qui pouvait advenir (in order not to use arriver twice). And I really like your translation of the law, Diane! :-) My two pence Catherine Catherine Pfaehler lic.oec.HSG Open Space Begleitung St. Alban-Vorstadt 15 CH - 4052 Basel +41-(0)61 - 272 64 32 c.pfaeh...@open-space-begleitung.ch www.open-space-begleitung.ch <http://www.open-space-begleitung.ch/> _____ Von: Luc Bizeul [mailto:lbiz...@gmail.com] Gesendet: Samstag, 19.
