9	238	On the other hand, there are subtleties and realities involved in these matters which may elude the casual observer.	10
9	279	Yet, doubtless the red hunters, too, if one were to be strict about such matters, were Indian.	10

1	22	In matters such as those of the alphabet conservatism seems unshakable.	10
1	24	An example of the conservatism in such matters is that Goreans, and, indeed, many of those of the Earth, are taught their alphabets in an order which bears no rational relation whatsoever to the occurrence pattern of the letters.	10

18	172	Unfortunately for her this information, as I suspect is often the case in such matters, proved unreliable.	10

3	156	"There can be progress in such matters," I said.	10
4	120	On the other hand, in spite of the theories pertaining to such matters, free women are certainly not immune to the fates of capture and enslavement.	10
4	121	Many men, despite the theories pertaining to such matters, and accepting the risks involved, enjoy taking them.	10
4	471	About this, however, I do not know a great deal, as Goreans tend not to be loquacious in such matters.	10
4	478	Too, obviously the male, at least occasionally, must speculate pertaining to such matters.	10
