Loc: California, USA Guys, calm down (but thx for the publicity, hehe). I explained to wordwind why we use a yahoo address (it's a shared account for all researchers working on this project).
If you look me up on the Stanford pages, you will find Florian Jaeger, Linguistics department, etc.
Whoever is interested in participating in our experiment (native speakers only!) will hear from us over the next couple of days,
Florian

Loc: this too shall pass NATIVE SPEAKERs of ENGLISH
yup, you have to assume one of two things; either the native is American or the english is American. or that you can ascertain the origin of the post.
one of three things? two of three things?? just another example of why you should never assume!?
or that America is coextensive with the USA (to wit, does not include Canada and/or Mexico), or that all of the above are included, or not disincluded, by the original post, or...)
English is such a [gray]grey[/gray] language.
