what better time

[Brian MacWhinney]

Dear Info-CHILDES,
  As we move into the "dog days" of summer, what better time to think about
donating those beautiful data files you have been polishing and perfecting
for years on end to the CHILDES database.  Lest you be bothered by little
elves running around at the Madison child language meeting repeatedly asking
[: nagging] you to contribute data, maybe you can get a jump on the elves
and send off the data now.  If interested, you can send your checked data to
me using FTP to monkey.psy.cmu.edu with username guest and password guest.
Many thanks.
