I think it's terrific that there will be a linguist archive at U. of Mich.
I have a modest request. Linguist requires only that one knowo how to use
e-mail. For the uninitiated, however, ftp is an undiscovered country.
Could someone post an ftp primer? Thanks, sheepishly.

Dear netters:

 Is somebody out there who has done researches on Okinawan phonology and
Japanese historical linguistics. I am very interested in these topics and
would appreciate recommendations on good sources written in either Japanese
or English on these topics. Please e-mail your recommendation to
 pucastor.cs.uga.edu
Thanks!

I was wondering if other linguists who are presenting
papers at Kobe have any ideas regarding any kind of
a collective application for funds for, e.g., "the U.S.
delegation to the International Pragmatics Conference"?

a colleague and i were recently reading the LSA guidelines for
non-offensive manuscripts, and we realised that we were failing
to cite a representative amount of research by gay authors -
particularly women - in our publications.

could anyone give us names of such authors working in intonation,
dialogue generation, pragmatics or speech synthesis?
many thanks,
