Dear all,

It appears that a very similar article about Chomsky also appeared at the
following site, written by a different author.

FEATURED ARTICLE
Chomsky Reinvents Himself

"Noam Chomsky who is considered the father of modern linguistics, has
simplified his approach to how humans acquire language and how they work...."
<snip>
"Despite the change in his theory, Chomsky's ultimate goal is the same, "is
trying to find out how humans really work." (article by Kara Schwartz)" 


best,

Jeff
