   Automatically finding sentence delimiter

   Hello,   
      
      Does anyone know of any good algorithm to automatically learn the   
   Sentence Delimiters in an informal text such as this one which has   
   Human Dialogs and not formally structured?

   THE COMMISSIONER:   Yes, Mr Agius, are we ready to   
   resume?   
      
   MR AGIUS:   Yes.  Mr Moss.   
      
   ANTHONY GAVIN MOSS   
   On former oath:   
      
   EXAMINATION BY MR AGIUS CONTINUING:   
      
   THE COMMISSIONER:   I'll treat you as bound by the   
   oath you took last week.  You are still bound by   
   the oath you took last Friday, so you may sit   
   down.  Yes, Mr Agius?   
      
   MR AGIUS:  Q.   Mr Moss, have you given this matter,   
   that is, the events of 21 September 1994, thought   
   over the weekend?   
   A.   Yes, I have.   
      
   Q.   And have you recalled any more of the events that   
   you've described in evidence?   
   A.   No.   
      
   Q.   Was it your habit in September of 1994 to   
   complete your duty book on a daily basis?   
   A.   To the best of my recollection, yes.   
      
   Q.   And would you normally complete an entry for a   
   particular day on that day or would you --   
   A.   Sometimes.   
      
   Q.   Sometimes you would and sometimes you wouldn't?   
   A.   That's right.   
      
   Q.   On this day, it seems that you submitted your   
   claim for overtime on the next day, 22 September?   
   A.   That's right.   
   ///////////////   
      
   I see that good delimiters which ought to be found by the algorithm   
   are Q. and A.   
   Given a text like this which is not well structured, is there any   
   algorithm which automatically finds the delimiters?
