    HA, HA, HA, HA!!!!  Marvellous.  But what of this:

<<or actually do believe in them (you guys in the US)>>

    Is this how we're thought of?  I pretty much thought only Chomsky still
believed in his theories.  Even his graduate students who thought they were
doing just what they should were eventually rejected by him.  At any rate,
here at Berkeley we don't tolerate such nonsense.  Here everyone just invents
their own theories of syntax.  ;)
