The one open wuestion at the moment that needs answering (unless you did already) is why Lojban is 'more relevant' to the question than studying natural languages, or why a constructed language could even yield meaningful data. This one would be long for me to answer, and if you can tackle it, you'll almost certainly do it shorter (and probably better). arthur protin may be contacting you. He committed to giving a talk at the some New Jersey computer society for an hour, thought about tackling Lojban and then decided he isn't up to an hour talk. Might you be talked into it if transport were arranged (Fri oct 12 I think he said) His address is uunet!pica!army.MIL!protin -lojbab
