-Third Transmission
+Third Transmission: Shifting to Simplo-Lang
 
-Hi. We're trying an experiment. The reason is because
-Ansesta's language (English) is difficult for us. That's
-why we're writing easy.
-  Screw that, that only makes it worse. You probably have
+hi, earthlings  
 
 
-Hi again? It's difficult for me to use ancestor's
-language. We spell it Ansesta, by the way, just a trivial
-bit of data from Pizo.
-  So Pizo, what does it mean? Chiefly two things: a) The na-
-me of the original Ansesta's ship, and b) the name of planet
-it colonized, long, long ago.
-  And there's also c) our airship, which we also named Pizo.
-Retrospectively that wasn't such a good name for our airship
-but, I don't know, I guess we were all feeling patriotic.
-  Let me tell you about Pizo, the planet, because that's 
-probably more relevant to you. The Starship Pizo must be in
-your records, perhaps hidden in some Gemini or Gopher server
-somewhere. By the way we are still using Gemini, many have
-tried to improve on it, but nobody could agree on how. It
-remains useful, though. But I digress. 
-  So, our planet, Pizo. Well, tis like Earth in many ways...
-I'm sending the techinal data on a separate text file, for
-whatever is worth. Differences? Well, there are just two
-main continents, both around the size of Africa in your an-
-cient Earth, but we call them Nor and Sur, which are our
-words for 'North' and 'South'. Guess why. 
-  Pizo compensates for the lack of large land masses with 
-thousands of islands, so many that most remain unnamed. 
-There aren't so many of us Pizoans(?)... 
-  And that's the reason for our job. We are kind of a family
-and friends and we trade and carry the odd passenger among
-the islands. Small loads only, but that's enough form many
-of the small isles. 
-  I'm interrupting here for the pilot is nagging me again.
+part 1 about simplo
+
+
+section about whats simplo
+im writing in simplo 
+simplo is the same as simplolang
+simplo is like ansesta
+ansesta is the same as english
+we use simplo for fun in pizo planet
+i think you can read simplo better than my 
+ clumsy ansesta
+ill write to you in simplo
+simplo is ugly but its simple
+
+section about simplo rules
+we avoid these things 
+   negations
+   periods
+   capitals
+   commas
+we use space instead of punctuacion 
+we love small words  and small sentences
+we avoid speaking simplo
+we only write  and read simplo
+simplo is bad for poems 
+   pretty messages  and complicated things
+   but you can try 
+you write subject first 
+   verb second 
+   and other things last
+we write hes  and shes 
+   and avoid he's  and she's
+   but that seems hard at first
+we try to be explicit
+   but saying just enough
+
+section about my thoughts on simplo
+simplo could be better
+simplo is just a kids game in planet pizo
+i think a teacher made simplo up for kids to learn ansesta
+   but i think it worked badly
+i like simplo anyway
+
+ 
+part 2 about today
+
+section about dreamy bar lady
+our airship pizo landed on pomora isle bay
+pomora isle is a wee isle on moonjami
+moonjami is a group of thousands of isles in planet pizo
+pomora  and moonjami lack other meanings
+we went to harbor in our auxiliary craft
+our auxiliary craft is solar powered too
+   by the way
+we went to bar
+we spoke to bar lady
+she told us that shes an earthling
+shes wrong
+i thik she feels an earthling  because shes read too many
+ books on earth
+but shes nice
+we told her about QEC
+she wants to send you a message
+   care for earth
+she is sad  about warming in 2023  and other years too
+i find hard  to understand  why shes sad
+   it happened very long ago indeed
+i hope you solved it
+   eventually
+but you are unable to call back
+   i think
+
+section about boring stuff
+we unloaded  and did some trade after that
+we went back to our airship  and thats all the important
+ things of today
+
+bye earthlings!
