Dear Subscribers, S. J. Hannahs is our latest adviser featured this Fund Drive. Dr. S. J. Hannahs has been an adviser to LINGUIST List for over 10 years. We appreciate his support and contributions to LINGUIST List and the help he has given us over the years. Now, read some words from S. J. Hannahs on his work as a LINGUIST List adviser: "I was an early subscriber to the Linguist List when it was still hosted from a server in Western Australia. In the pre-Google, pre-Wikipedia world it seemed miraculous that linguists across the globe could be brought together virtually to discuss linguistics, to announce upcoming conferences and newly published books. Our access to source materials has changed since then, with downloadable pdf files from archives and publishers' websites, as well as individual papers available from linguists' personal webpages. But throughout the past couple of decades the LinguistList has been in on the changes in computing technology, playing a central role in facilitating our access within linguistics not only to materials and resources but to each other."

Hannahs' letter, view our latest comic strip that we are featuring on our site, which was submitted by a subscriber.

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Eastern Michigan University and as
such can receive donations through the EMU Foundation, which is a registered
501(c) Non Profit organization. Our Federal Tax number is 38-6005986. These
donations can be offset against your federal and sometimes your state tax return
(U.S. tax payers only). For more information visit the IRS Web-Site, or contact
your financial advisor.
Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that they will match
any gift you make to a non-profit organization. Normally this entails your
contacting your human resources department and sending us a form that the
EMU Foundation fills in and returns to your employer. This is generally a simple
administrative procedure that doubles the value of your gift to LINGUIST, without
costing you an extra penny. Please take a moment to check if your company
operates such a program.
Thank you very much for your support of LINGUIST!
