Okay, I think I've got #47 "Number marking [examples] (2, MAY 1997)"
at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/conlang/message/2031
I'm posting this to the list to avoid reduplication of effort, and
also cc:ing it to Peter Clark because this doesn't do any good if he
doesn't get it.
So far it looks like we have:
#36 "Overdeclention" [sic] 20 Apr 1997"
#37 "Compliments [sic] and Predicates" (multiple articles 21, APR 1997)
#47 "Number marking" [examples] (2, MAY 1997)
#56 "Complexity in language" (multiple articles 28 May 1997)
#67 "YACC" (15 Jul 1997)
with the following articles still missing:
#2 Link broken Colaboration summary (29, NOV 1996)

#18 How a conlanger got started (18, DEC 1996)
#19 The GSI (gramatical similarity index) (19, DEC 1996)
(The above are probably lost for good, as they predate the Yahoo!
archive, and I find the existance of complete private archives
stretching back more than 5 years unlikely)

I think I looked for "Mood examples (19, MAR 1997)" and couldn't find
anything that looked like it on that date. Next I'll look for #28,
#58 and #60.
