Interesting discussion! And I don't think it's off-topic at all, as long
as we stick to the philosophy of science of _corpus linguistics_.
If anybody is interested, my 10 year old Ph.D. thesis discusses things
like these at length. I'm sure it will will provoke some of you. As a
matter of fact, even I get a bit provoked by what I wrote at that time. :-)
You'll find it here: http://www.ling.gu.se/~lager/taglog.html
