A grand metaphysical fiction on which much of post-enlightenment western civilization depends. Originally known as “joint stock companies”, [[LLC]]s are demure creatures, usually hidden behind a corporate veil. | A grand metaphysical fiction on which much of post-enlightenment western civilization depends.

While walking in the [[Cayman Islands]] during a biological expedition in 1926, glum Scottish naturalist [[A. J. N. Calder]] discovered an animal very like the [[ellellcie]] in a forest not far from [[George Town]], [[Grand Cayman]]. This creature (which, for reasons best known to himself, he originally dubbed the “[[shelfco]]”) turned out to be a an [[espiecie]] - a rather remarkable adaptation of the [[ellellcie]] unique to the islands of the [[British West Indies]]. | |||
It is thought to have evolved from an [[ellellcie]] that was washed overboard as the Mayflower passed the Caribbean on its way to Cape Cod, but it had in the ensuing three hundred years adapted so totally to its new environment that it was almost unrecognisable as an [[ellellcie]]. Despite repeated efforts scientists and financial engineers have been unable to successfully merge or consolidate an [[espiecie]] with a traditional [[ellellcie]] and the prevailing orthodoxy today has it that they are now entirely distinct geni of legal personality. | |||
