What an interesting way of characterizing views of grammar that disagree with your own!
Craig writes:
My own tendency has been to lobby for new ways of looking at grammar, but ATEG has long been an organization made
up of people with fairly conservative (not regressive, not by a long
shot) views. This was hard on me because I felt I had a lot invested in
the project, but would be asked to shut out from the conversation the
new possibilities in grammar that excite me the most.

Of course, there is no hostility in characterizing others views with the term "fairly conservative."
Craig, I appreciate such an honest appraisal of others views of the nature of language.
