GRGR3 - Zipf reference

[Curt Gardner]

According to Steven Weisenburger's _A Gravity's Rainbow Companion_ for 
GR32.5:

The reference is not to George Kingsley Zipf's 1949 book, _Human Behavior 
and the Principle of Least Effort_.  Instead, the text for this complex, 
arresting reference is his 1935 study, _The Psycho-Biology of Language_.
... Much of his work relies on various statistical and probabilistic tests 
applied to recorded samples of ordinary discourse...
