<DD>Dear Gerlind, Bhuvana, and Kurumada, <BR><BR>
<DD> How about a new mailing list at <A
href="http://googlegroups.com">googlegroups.com</A>? We could
call<BR>
<DD>it <A
href="mailto:chiprag@googlegroups.com">chiprag@googlegroups.com</A>
. We recently moved info-<BR>
<DD><A
href="mailto:chibolts@mail.talkbank.org">chibolts@mail.talkbank.org</A> to
<A href="mailto:chibolts@googlegroups.com">chibolts@googlegroups.com</A>
and, so far,<BR>
<DD>my opinion of the Google Groups facility is very positive. I
would <BR>
<DD>be willing to set this up, but it would be even better if some
senior<BR>
<DD>figure in Developmental Pragmatics would take this on. Failing
that,<BR>
<DD>an energetic young person with good computer access would serve
fine<BR>
<DD>too. Failing that, I could give it a try.<BR><BR>
