RE: [jboske] po'o

Since po'o can occur anywhere, it's hard to know when it is meaningful
and what it means when it does occur.

It's easier to do with English "only":

"there were only three people"
"the bullet only grazed me"

-- here 'only' means something more than logical 'only' (a term
I took from Lojbab, btw).

--And.
