Dear Subscribers,
If you've been following The LINGUIST List Fund Drive, you know that
we still need $33,313 to reach our goal of $48,000. In other words,
we have received $14,687 from generous persons and organizations like
you. As you see from the donor list, our contributors include
publishers, who donate in return for our announcing their linguistics
publications, as well as various institutions and organizations. But
every bit as important are the donations we receive from individual
subscribers from all parts of the world.
We thought you might find it interesting to see where your fellow
subscribers are from, so we have compiled a listing of the 106
countries that are represented in our subscriber list. Currently, our
combined lists, LINGUIST and LINGLITE, have 15,662 subscribers,
exclusive of those on the 49 redistribution lists, which are
considered separate entities. This means that since last year at this
time, we have added roughly 2,000 new subscribers. To the new 2,000,
we'd like to welcome you to the Linguist List!
The country by country breakdown is as follows:

We are very proud to think that LINGUIST is serving linguists
throughout the world. If you are one of these linguists and agree that
Linguist List is a useful, even indispensable resource, won't you
consider making a donation? Thank you!
So if you have not donated yet, please go to
http://linguistlist.org/donate.html to send us your pledge. From
there you have the choice of donating straight away by credit card
using our secure form, or you can send us a cheque later. If you do
send a cheque, please make it payable in US dollars; we get charged
about $50 a time to convert currency (no such problems with a credit
card).
Alternatively, you can hit "Reply" to this message and send us your
pledge right now by email, prior to sending your cheque. Then we will
be able to list you immediately as one of our donors; and we may be
able to reach our goal (and halt these Fund Drive messages) a bit
earlier. The address to send cheques is as follows:
The LINGUIST Editorial Support Fund
c/o Helen Aristar-Dry
Dept. of English
Eastern Michigan University
Ypsilanti, MI
USA 48197
As a 501(c)3 organization, LINGUIST qualifies for corporate
donation-matching programs; and, of course, your donation is tax
deductible.
Don't forget that in return for a donation of $30, you too can receive
an adult-size LINGUIST List T-shirt and and become the envy of your
friends and neighbours. To see our highly-paid fashion models* show
off the fine attire we have on offer, please visit our premiums page
at http://linguistlist.org/premiums.html. We also have baby-sized
T-shirts and tote bags for $25. Please let us know in your pledge
what you would like and remember to let us know your postal address and
what size and style you need.
We at LINGUIST really do appreciate your support. We could not
continue without you.
With our sincere thanks,
The LINGUIST Crew:
Anthony, Helen, Andrew, Karen, Naomi, Heather, James, Michael,
Zhen-Wei, Richard, Karolina, Dina, Renee, Steve, Marie, Gayathri,
John, Ljuba, Terry, Simin, Tomoko.
* Unfortunately, due to budget constraints, we had to make a
last-minute decision to replace the highly-paid models with rather
less well paid LINGUIST List editors. Maybe next year.

Subject: Behind the scenes: LINGUIST editor James
Dear subscribers,
We thought you'd like to hear from some of the students your funds are
supporting. So this year each fund drive issue will include a brief
paragraph from one of our editors telling you, their sponsors, about
their work with LINGUIST.
And now, a few words from James Yuells...
I've worked for LINGUIST for almost four years now, first as an
undergraduate and now as a grad student in linguistics. What
continues to impress me is the intellectual environment that LINGUIST
fosters. Whether we are discussing linguistics, programming, or even
the fund drive, there is always a lively, varied discussion. In fact,
this is probably the only group I know where I could debate
linguistics, programming, philosophy, and politics all in the same
hour! The crew at LINGUIST is smart, but more importantly they know
how to use their intelligence, both to interact constructively and to
get things done. They are fun for me to be around; I'm learning a lot;
and I also feel that, as part of that crew, I am doing useful work.
So I want to thank LINGUIST subscribers for providing the funding
which supports this crew, and our efforts.
