Dear LINGUISTs,

We are very pleased to announce the winners of this year's Publisher
Prize Draw. We would like to thank the following Supporting Publishers
for their amazing generosity:

Cascadilla Press
http://www.cascadilla.com/

Elsevier Science
http://www.elsevier.com/locate/linguistics

The MIT Press
http://mitpress.mit.edu/

Oxford University Press
http://www.oed.com/

The Linguistic Association of Finland
http://www.ling.helsinki.fi/sky/

The draw was held on Saturday 26th April 2003. All donors to the
LINGUIST List from 1st January 2003 to 25th April 2003 were
automatically included in the draw. As this prize draw was free to
enter, people who did not donate but emailed us as per the
instructions (see http://linguistlist.org/prizedraw.html) were also
included into the list of entrants by creating a $0 donation in our
database. All entrants thus had a unique ID number. These numbers were
then retrieved from our database and generated into a list, which was
then subjected to a random generator to pull random positions in the
list and display the unique ID number at that position. These ID
numbers were then matched up to the person in our database. There was
a total of seven prizes available. The random generator was run seven
times, each time for one of the prizes in the order shown below. This
process was actioned by Richard Harvey (Fund Drive Coordinator), under
the supervision of Prof. Helen Aristar-Dry (Moderator), with Karolina
Owczarzak (Web Development) present. If you have any questions
regarding the draw, please email Richard at richardlinguistlist.org.

And the winners are...(fanfare, loud applause, champagne...)
