[Air-L] Longitudinal qualitative analysis of CMC

[Caroline Haythornthwaite]

I've been alerted that the JCMC url below (the original one when the paper was 
published) now goes to a spam site. It's better than the last time I made this 
mistake, when it went to a pornographic site :( ... memo to self, update my own 
URLs!

Here's the current URL for the Haythornthwaite et al paper:
