From: "Noam Chomsky" To: "Jeffrey E." <jeevacation®gmail.com> CC: ' Subject: RE: Re: Date: Sat, 20 Jun 2015 15:44:15 +0000 Sounds like a most interesting person. And someone it would be very interesting to talk to. I presume he spends time in NY. Hope we can work it out. Would be interested in learning more about your critique of the use of probability in language work, mostly by computational cognitive scientists, as far as I know. I've written critiques of it too, but on different grounds: failure to account for what they are trying to show, or even to understand the issue. There are, I think, some notable exceptions, like the recent work of Charles Yang, one of Bob Berwick's students. From: jeffrey E.

( like the silly , life on other planets " calculation". probability needs repetition and symmetry, historical events do not have either ! ) On Sat, Jun 20, 2015 at 1:08 AM, Noam Chomsky < wrote: Glad it worked.
