    I can help with this one. My campus library has obtained a copy
via inter-library loan, and I'll be in touch with Barry about its
contents.
Also, a second of his requests has just been met (_Current Trends In
Nonstandard Language of The Naval Air Force_, by Anthony Austin; M.A.
thesis at the Univ. of Florida). Again, I'll fill Barry in on its
contents when he returns from his travels.

   That's two down and a batch more to go. I agree with Jesse, it's a
great collection.
