It <em>is</em> a feature of Tamina's system, which in the case of epistemic modals seems to be a good thing and in the case of taste predicates is at least somewhat problematic.</p> Thanks, Peter.

See section 6.2, pp. 674-678 of L&P 28.6. I actually present this as an advantage of the analysis, over older "Dative Deletion" analyses like that of Kimball (1971), which do require identity.</p> I’d like to point out that the final version of my “Personal Taste” paper does NOT require the judge of a complement clause to a propositional attitude verb to be identical to the higher subject.
