What you're describing is something like the

Ask-A-Linguist service on Linguist-L. It's

designed so that the non-specialist can get

answers from specialists.

Maybe what we need is a not a new ADS-L list,

but one that addresses the

needs of many of the

non-professionals--something lke "words and

phrase

queries." I would like to see such queries

elsewhere, and ADS-L confined

to a discussion of reserach issues in

dialectology and soicolinguistics.
