[Mihalic] Highlands pidgin

[Bryant Allen]

>I am not a Linguist, but I grew up in the highland of PNG and tokpisin is my

Where did Terry get the impression that Highlanders can speak pidgin? But 
this raises the matter of what pidgin are we dealing with. Sepik/Tolai/New 
Ireland pidgin is what I see as the truest pidgin and Highlanders certainly 
speak a less complex form of this pidgin. Are we planning on distinguishing 
differences?
