gabrifvg i think it's true that agencies will try to extend thir powers (and fundings...)to an infinite level, if given the chance. and that's why, in my opinion, they should continuously be monitored and controlled. i also agree on the fact that all the evident...

gabrifvg i'm not so sure it would work out... simply combining nervus and trasmitto wouldn't give the idea... latin doesn't have the concept... but i'll think about this and let you know if i get any idea

gabrifvg it's not a crime to be anti-social... nor is it to assume drugs, at least not in all countries. what can not be tollerated though is violence, and degradation

gabrifvg it would be impossible to say, because latin does not have the concept of neurotransmission. you would have to create a circumlocution ad hoc to express what you mean
