[net.nlang] "Our Concern is Growing" & ambiguity

lat@stcvax.UUCP (Larry Tepper) (09/28/84)

Hey folks, don't forget this classic.  It's copyrighted by the
author.  Here's part of it (as a review of ambiguity).  I believe
it was published in full in the Last Whole Earth Catalog.

Yes, I know this isn't directly related to "Our Concern is Growing",
et al.  Please enjoy it anyway.
