I, er, just wanted to share the beautiful diagram I made[1], which I will include in the PPT presentation for my honours thesis defence tomorrow.------------------
[1] Meaghan Fowlie gave me the idea that there was a hierarchy involved with these semantic properties, hence the sweet vertical formatting.

ooooh! Was I right?
Hee hee, if I knew what was "right" in language, that would take all of the fun out of it.
Although at my defense, the semanticist on hand didn't like the parallel between the greek N-words and the BF non-affirmatives (largely because he didn't agree with Giannakidou's analysis of greek N-words as universal)...so if my original parallel-analysis doesn't work, I might have to find something else entirely...
