hrjIt's so delightful to see Language Log considering the same fascinating questions about the competing grammatical, conventional, and metaphoric motivations of preposition choice that I spent an entire PhD dissertation exploring. It's almost tempting to drop a note to that effect to the blog, but I'm not sure I'm quite that forward.
ETA: Ok, ok, I sent off a note to the blog author, including a mention of where the dissertation is available online. I suppose it would be ultra-cool if my name showed up in further discussions on the blog. Almost as cool as having my paper title mentioned in the Kalamazoo Pseudo-Session monologue!
