Regrettably, we couldn't make it open access but I would be happy to share an offprint.

I'm interested in anything dealing with #sounds (#phonetics and #phonology), the structure of words (#morphology), and change in language over time (#histling).
I'm also a big advocate of functional programming and #rustlang.
Politically, I am a very #moderate #anarchist.
