> Input: Bison from Buffalo , which bison from Buffalo bully , themselves bully bison from Buffalo . Parse:

   Bison NNP ROOT
    +-- from IN prep
    |   +-- Buffalo NNP pobj
    +-- , , punct
    +-- bison NN ccomp
    |   +-- themselves PRP nsubj
    |   +-- bully RB advmod
    |   +-- from IN prep
    |       +-- Buffalo NNP pobj
    +-- . . punct
Interesting.

"bully RB advmod"

I assume this is wrong, and probably triggered by the "ly" ending? Also, odd that it dropped the second clause and didn't see any trouble with the parsed results lacking a single verb. I guess it has to be able to handle fragments, etc.
