Hi.
In Brazilian Portuguese, words like "então" (then) and "logo" (so) are used
to signal a relation of conclusion, as in the following example:

..  o cara pega e bota a integral onde ele quer,
.. e faz tudo que ele quer do jeito que ele quer, 
.. então não precisa de teoria,
.. num precisa de matemática,

.. the guy puts integrals wherever he wants,
.. and does whatever he wants the way he wants,
.. THEN he doesn't need the theory,
.. he doesn't need maths.

Actually, it has been very difficult to find a RST relation for cases like
this. So, I have been thinking of creating a new relation like "conclusion".
I'd like to hear from you about that.
Yours,
Juliano
