Sorry to intervene rather late, but I think Rob has misplaced his own 
reference.

According the the publishers of Anthropological Linguistics
http://www.indiana.edu/~anthling/v49-3-4.html
  that paper was published in 2007:

Vol. 49, no. 3-4 (Fall/Winter 2007)
The Lingua Franca Cycle: Implications for Language Shift, Language 
Change, and Language Classification
Robbins Burling    207

and the page numbers he cites are also slightly out: 207-236
