[Ads-l] Article in Dictionaries: Journal of the Dictionary Society of North America

[Laurence Horn]

Maybe someone should work on a logo—an anteater, perhaps with bifocals, perusing a dictionary, with the “d” of dictionary dropping gently between the (first) <e> and (second) <a> of the ANTE_ATER caption.
