%X I was glad to receive a response from Jeff McQuillan and Stephen Krashen to my piece "Computing the Demands of Vocabulary Acquisition from Reading" (Language Learning & Technology, October, 2007), because drafting a reply forces me to be even more clear about what I am saying. I was initially surprised to see the lead responder was an expert in first language (L1) reading rather than second (L2) but on second thought McQuillan¡¯s (The Literacy Crisis, 1998) participation makes sense.
