1. It's not first person, it is It was called.
2. My language would need a seperate clause for that.
My language is somewhat inneficiean in word saving.
in the babel text
"Nothing they plan to do will be impossble for them"
becomes
"There will be nothing that they will plan to do which will be impossible
for them"
You see?
