     Would a language spoken by a race change so dramatically (OSV to SVO)
in the lifetime of one member?  Sure, 900 years creates huge changes in
Earth languages, but somebody like Yoda would have a completely different
frame of reference.  I personally doubt that his language would change that
much in one lifetime, even if that lifetime _is_ that long.
