a few things...

[Vanessa Jones]

Hello Peter,

My professor Keith Cagle wrote (or is almost completed writing) his  
PhD dissertation comparing French SL and ASL I believe. Maybe this  
could be a helpful resource for you? His degree will be from Univ of  
New Mexico. Would you be interested in more info?

Good luck!

Vanessa
