RXS: Rob's version of XS

Well, in the first I remain uncertain what kind of an event a three somethings is. The second is a puzzle: I am tempted to say that it is a verbal trick, since it cannot be derived from the first (properly presented) and yet it looks so reasonable. It way be yet another argument for something other than {lo} in some places — though it is hard to see what will work. I am inclined to say the first may be true but the second is clearly false.
