    I should probably be sening ths to the BNC list -- apologies... The web
    interface to the BNC appears not very reliable. For example, I look up
    'nutshell' in the 1,000,000-word BNC sampler and find three references,
    but when I look for it using the interface to the 100,000,000-word
    collection at http://info.ox.ac.uk/bnc/search.html, I get "No matches
    found."
