New "Phrases in English" site launched at
http://pie.usna.edu/. Development and update of this site has been
abandoned. The new site has a much larger database and resides on a faster,
more robust server. It also offers features unavailable on this site,
such as a random set of concordances of a given phrase from the BNC.
Since the new site is not accessible to all, the site will eventually become a
proxy server for the new site.
