I would suggest that we have discussed ad naseum the reasons for not including more of Currier's results in this paper, and it would be good to return to the discussion of the actual paper itself, and its conclusions. Unless Currier has a publication that directly impacts upon the paper in question, I think we should drop this angle as having run its course.
There is much more of interest to discuss in this paper.
I would also suggest in passing Nick's description of an entire field of linguistic methodology as Baxian is entirely unjust upon Profs Bax and Currier. Prof Bax did not claim to invent the methodology; and certainly he had no impact whatsoever upon Prof Currier, who was studying the book a good 40 years before Prof Bax ever picked it up!
