Please wait; my initial reaction was the same as Mr. Bell's; I'm not
very familiar with Mr. Chomsky's work, though I know he is thought to be
one of the premier linguists and induced some sort of paradigm shift in
the field with a publication in the 1950s (?) Could you inform those of
us who are ignorant of what he has accomplished?

Thank you,
