Subject: Concordances
In the current issue of Computers and the Humanities (26, page 463) I have
a review of a concordance program, and point out that much as the computer
helps in manufacturing concordances, a good deal of human work remains to
be done. I would agree, though, that making a concordance is not a very
high level of scholarly achievement, however you do it.

In response to several good HUMANISTS who pointed out to me that 'CMC'
(in my call for papers on 'Philosophical Perspectives on CMC') is not
a universally understood acronym, allow me to unpack it: CMC stands for
Computer-Mediated Communication, refering usually to communication
enabled by computer networks (though the definition itself is somewhat
open to -- guess what -- philosophical discussion).
Sorry for the potential and actual confusion.
