well, here’s a video lecture

– sorry clown meldrew you cannot see it, maybe you can hear it? – where dan talks about his anthropological research on a language in brazil, and makes points that chomsky and pinker are not really correct… heh…. along the way where he talks about this particular language. most interesting in that it provides evidence for non-universality, but also just in itself.
