    <Paragraph position="0"> I am grateful to Barbara Grosz for aiding me in the development of the LRC algorithm and for discussing centering theory issues. I am also grateful to Donna Byron, who was responsible for much brainstorming, cross-checking of results, and coding of the Hobbs algorithm. I am thankful as well for Jenny Rogers's work in annotating the fictional texts from the Penn Treebank in the same style used by Ge, Hale, and Chamiak (1998). Special thanks go to Michael Strube, James Allen, Lenhart Schubert, and Mark Core for advice and brainstorming. I would also like to thank Eugene Charniak and Niyu Ge for the annotated, parsed Penn Treebank corpus, which proved invaluable.</Paragraph>
