Hi Daryn--your web site sounds exciting and timely and I look foward to
when it goes live.  As for my news searches...well really I have no
secret, its just that I am an avid news reader.  When I search, I
basically do it manually in Google News like "language aboriginal" or
"language indigenous," etc., and then I sort it by date.  I am sure
there is an easier way like a news feed or something.  Too, you are not
the only one who mentioned my timely scoop on AUS articles...I imagine
it just might be a time warp between Tucson and Australia.  

l8ter, 
Phil
