    Dear colleagues

    I remember Michael Stubbs once used an analogy in stressing the importance
    of the advent of corpora to linguists and the analogy is the creation of
    telescope to astronauts. But I forgot the source. Could anybody direct me to
    the reference?

    Michael, if you could see the query, you are more than welcome to reply
    youself.

    Best
