================================================================  

We'd like to remind readers that the responses to queries are usually
best posted to the individual asking the question. That individual is
then strongly encouraged to post a summary to the list. This policy was
instituted to help control the huge volume of mail on LINGUIST; so we
would appreciate your cooperating with it whenever it seems appropriate.

In addition to posting a summary, we'd like to remind people that it
is usually a good idea to personally thank those individuals who have
taken the trouble to respond to the query.

Hello, 

I am a PhD student from Aberdeen. I am doing a computational 
linguistic experiment in which I am collecting descriptions of famous 
people. The experiment itself along with the description and the 
instructions can be found on my website:

http://peopleexperiment.appspot.com/ 

It takes about 2 minutes to read the instructions and the actual length 
of the experiment depends on how much time you want to spend on it 
(you can leave at any point). 

Thank you,
Roman Kutlak
