S<puellaest>: <<<Afghanistan Repatriation Memorial  honouring Canadian
soldiers that died in Afghanistan>>>
WB<puellanonest>: Recalling my undergraduate feature notation: A.R.M.
involves (for me, EGO) incompatible features. _Repatriation_ includes the
feature [+alive], _memorial_ [-alive]. This is why it jars my neurons.
Evidently, _repatriation_ has a broader [+/-alive] feature for non-EGO
informants.
