Uh, OK, what's Jerry's e-mail addy? Also, when you write a one-cell or two-cell 
whole-word contraction (like "that" and "you", or "again" and "about"), and 
then put an ellipsis after it, the DBT on the BN treats it as a group of 
letters (like t and y, see your message below, or ag and ab).  You have to 
write them out or use other contractions like the th in "that" and the ou in 
"you", so that it would translate correctly to text.  I don't know why it's 
like that, and three- or four-cell whole-word contraction read right when 
followed by an ellipsis.  Some two-cell whole-word contractions likewise are 
spared from this weirdness like "friend" and "after".  Just thought I'd let you 
know, Kid.  Thanks.
