I would like to thank Tony Liddicoat, Michael Dunn, Stuart Robinson, Avery Andrews and the ANU formal linguistics group, Alan Dench, Mark Donohue and an anonymous reviewer, who read an earlier draft of this paper and advised me on how to deal with some of its problems. Whether I have succeeded in doing so is, of course, my responsibility.
