It's a busy afternoon for the fire department.

Personal pronouns in Esperanto are ridiculously simple:

I = mi
You = vi (there is only one form)
He = li
She = ŝi
They = ili
It = ĝi
One = oni (not the same as the number, which is unu)

In the accusative, add -n:

Me = min
You = vin
Him = lin
Her = ŝin
Them = ilin
It = ĝin

Possesives add -a (-aj for plural) and also take the accusative where necessary:

Mia / mian / miaj / miajn

And so forth…

@kdfrawg Very nice! And a great story to go with it. ?

If there's one thing I've learned after several years of being diabetic, it's that blood glucose management is imperfectly understood and varies among individuals. My general rule when dealing with a particular food is to test my BG levels frequently under varied conditions. If something negatively affects me, I avoid it; if it doesn't, I eat it regardless. I'm apparently one of the lucky ones; oatmeal doesn't bother me, and neither does Splenda.

@kdfrawg If you want the transliteration of the last item, it's Korabl' (the single quote is the soft sign in Cyrillic [ь] and indicates a slight "y" sound after the consonant).

@kdfrawg Looked it up: СПб is an abbreviation for St. Petersburg.

"Ship"

Not sure what the abbreviation means.

@kdfrawg With regard to the article, I'd take it with several large grains of salt. Mercola is a quack. He says eyeglasses are bad for you, spirulina cures AIDS, statins are dangerous, and he's anti-vaccination. He's about the last person on Earth I'd take medical advice from.

I'll be interested to know if it works for you. Generally, fasting like that plays havoc with my blood sugar. What works for me is a few days of a strict low-carb, high-protein diet.
