Michael & All,

I kept up fairly well with several varieties of generative and transformational linguistics
up through the beginnings of Government and Binding theory, as that much consorted well with
logic and programming in a sort of mutual application society.  But I did get the impression
that the field of linguistics began to regress after that, back to blind connectionist, naive
inductivist, and brute force statistical approaches.

Regards,

Jon
