Does anyone have an e-mail address by which I can reach the editors of
the journal _Neophilologus_? (published in Amsterdam). Thanks!

I'm looking for pointers to reasonably robust tools that could be
licensed or otherwise obtained for use in commercial natural language
projects; specifically, a part of speech tagger, tools to identify
noun phrases in a large corpus, and a robust parser written in C (with
a customizable English grammar).

Thanks for any help you can provide.

Does anybody out there have an email address for Nigel Fabb? (or
even a snailmail address)

Thanks to all who have responded re a suitable elementary textbook for
discourse analysis. As soon as I return from SCA national meeting in Miami at
the end of this month, I will try to post a comprehensive summary to this
list. Please bear with me.

BTW, I am informed that there is a new thoroughgoing text from Blackwell by
someone at Georgetown (not Tannen) that is good. Anyone know of this and can
critique for me?

thanks again, Alan
(please reply privately)
