#' Colin Martindale's English Regressive Imagery Dictionary
#' 
#' A dataset containing Colin Martindale's (1975, 1990) English Regressive Imagery 
#' Dictionary (RID).  The Regressive Imagery Dictionary (RID) is a text analysis
#' coding taxonomy that can be used to measure the degree to which a text is 
#' \emph{primordial} vs. \emph{conceptual}.  This acts as a proxy for assessing the 
#' illuctioner's mental thinking in producing the text. This dictionary is 
#' essentially a bucketed grouping of regexes'  The main level of bucketing is
#' \emph{thinking} and is either \emph{primordial} vs. \emph{conceptual}.
#' Under the primordial group is the \emph{primary} process group while the conceptual
#' thinking includes \emph{secondary} and \emph{emotional} process groups.  These
#' can be further broken into categories and subcategories (subcategories for 
#' primary process only).  Comparing the percentages of the buckets provides
#' insight into the writer's thinking.  This particular list was taken from 
#' https://github.com/jefftriplett/rid.py.
