Dear members

The Bootcamp syllabus looks exciting but will be fatally flawed unless
collocation is included. Be sure to get value for money here. Collocation is
nascent instrumentation for language. Do not be duped by word lists. Register if
and only if collocation and semantic prosody are on offer. It is the difference
between a 20th century conference and a 21st century one.
