Spaghetti or Lasagna for Linguists; by The LSA Committee on Comestibles in Linguistics; From Volume CLXIII, Number 2, of Speculative Grammarian, November 2011. \u2014 In order to understand various types of linguists better, we conducted a controlled experiment. Very simply, we asked each linguist \u201cDo you want spaghetti or lasagna for dinner?\u201d We think the replies we got are instructive, and so we are sharing them with you. (Read by Elliott Hoey.)
