Re: VMs: The Sun, The Moon and The Stars



Hi :-) 

Four (4) repeats is all the ~Folding key coding~ can handle also, 
(simple code that it is): else 
throw in a _gallows~ character of (random) choice, then you can 
have upto 8 (eightMAX)... (mirrored?) what words weould qualify? 
xxyxyzy? 

best to you & yours

 I think the record is four repeats of the same
 word, one instance somewhere in the bio section.
 Also 3-time repeats are still quite rare.

 Well, at least in the German language the Sun
 is feminine and the Moon masculine...
 Opposite from French (and I guess most if not
 all Romance languages).
