1. Sarah Thomason, Soliciting comments about Dwight Bolinger

 Robert Stockwell is preparing an obituary of Dwight Bolinger
for the journal LANGUAGE. He would appreciate hearing from anyone
who has comments or anecdotes about Bolinger that might be useful
in preparing the obituary, either as background or for quotation.
He already has a few of the comments that have appeared on LINGUIST
(by Haiman, Givon, and Nunberg, I believe). If you would like to
contribute your thoughts and/or stories, please send them to him
directly (Linguistics Dept., UCLA, 405 Hilgard Avenue, Los Angeles,
CA 90024; email: IBENALUMVS.OAC.UCLA.EDU) and/or to me for
forwarding: SGTA.NL.CS.CMU.EDU.

 Please indicate whether you are willing to be quoted or not.

 Thanks for your help!
