Hi there everyone,

Way back on March 31st of this year, it was mentioned that there was a
CHILDES/BIB where one could find information on "mean length of utterance".
 I have tried to access this site (http://alaska.psy.cmu.edu) on the net,
but to no avail.  Is it possible that the server is always tied up?

Another question if I may: The unit of measurement for mlu is
"morpheme/utterance".  What is the exact definition of "morpheme" ? Is an
"utterance" equal to a new tier for a particular speaker?
