2 Anglo-Saxon questions:

1) Does anyone know the contact person(s) for the group in Canada that was
compiling all Anglo-Saxon texts on CD-ROM?

2) Does anyone know of any scholarly articles on the Anglo-Saxon Runic
Poem? I have some truly wretched popular articles on it, and Bruce Dickins
translation. I have gathered that there are disputes over the accuracy of
Dicken's text, but have been unable to locate the supposedly more accurate
text in R.M. Meyer's discussion (which I believe is in Runenlied,
Bibliothek des angelsaechischen Poesie).

Thanks in advance,

Hello,
I'm interested in ESL software, preferably interactive, multimedia based.
I'm interested in commercial as well as shareware/public domain software.
Please include a short decription of the software in addition to
contacts/ price.
Thank you very much,

Hello,
I'm am interested in finding software that will produce spectrograms from
standard (SoundBlaster) sound boards.
Shareware applications are welcome in addition to commercial ones -
please include a short description and a contact.

Dear all,

I study certain discourse level aspects of human-computer interaction. A
parallel that recently has occurred to me is studying human-human
interaction over noisy channels -- which components of the dialog are
sacrificed earlier than others, and which ones are retained until the
channel deteriorates too far to be useful at all.

I prefer not to try to elaborate on what I mean by 'component', 'channel',
and 'noisy'. I hope someone has thought more about these things than I
have.

Do you know of studies or other material on this sort of thing?
