chatter

[Brian MacWhinney]

Dear Erin,

    I just now downloaded a copy of the Brown corpus from the web and used the current version of Chatter (version 85) on it and got no errors.  So, I am guessing that you are either not using the current version of Chatter or else not using the current version of the data.
