I am grateful to Thomas Huebner (San Jose State University) and John Rickford (Stanford University), both long-term colleagues and students of Charles A. Ferguson, for their very helpful comments and suggestions in response to an earlier version of these remarks. Shirley B. Heath (Carnegie Foundation), Ferguson's wife and colleague, was of particular help and encouragement, as were his daughters Lisa J. Arthur and Tina Toren.
