As some of you may have noticed, I have made some changes in the interface (it's been a learning exercise.) What I really need is for every sentence to be "signed off" by at least two people. That means that at least two people either think there are no unmarked lexemes, or that they can't see any more after they have marked some. Once a sentence has two such sign-offs, I will remove it. I have added the sign-off count to the sentence list, so that you can see how many sign-offs there have been. If you get a chance, please look at a few more.
