A student of mine who is not on the net is looking for references on
formal, systematized description of discourse and dialogs (tours de parole
etc.), that would go ``beyond Levison's work'' (his words) to use in an
automatic analyzer for political discourse. As his topic is rather out
of our local waters (syntax and parsing), I'd appreciate any help you can
provide.
 
Please answer to me directly (walther at uni2a.unige.ch) and I'll post a summary.
 
Thanks,

Hello.  I am looking for a font that will write in  Vietnamese on a Macintosh.
If anyone has heard of such a thing, please let me know the details as to how I
might obtain it.   Thank you.

Hi there.  I will be in Quito from March 23 to April 2 and would like
information on Quichua. I am particularly interested in native language
instruction movements and Quichuan Spanish.  Does anybody have contacts?
