Hi, 'gator! [blowing kiss e] "IOW"--hey, I got it! Have no idea if it's "legal". Yes, I see your point, and agree. But what if I do something deliberately to give that person the illness? Or do something that I know will cause a permanent disability? (No, I'm not planning to--just sometimes like to carry hypotheticals to the extreme!)
Hmm, guess I have inflicted an injury that causes them to be afflicted, right? I was just trying to stretch for any situation where a person could afflict someone. Soojin, I think we're going to have to say that we can cause an affliction, but that we can't afflict anybody.
