Meeting Description: 

The International Conference on Historical Linguistics is held every second 
year under the auspices of the International Society of Historical Linguistics. 

Dear Colleagues, 

The Organizers of the 20th International Conference on Historical 
Linguistics (ICHL XX) have been receiving messages showing sympathies 
toward those affected by the earthquake that took place in the Northern 
Japan on March 11, and would like to thank everyone for their 
consideration.  We assure prospective participants that the Osaka area is 
little affected by the incident (we are more than 1000 km away from the area 
where the disaster took place); on this side of Japan, things have remained 
normal and airports and other public transportations are functioning as 
usual.  We understand that the situation in Tokyo is quickly getting back to 
normal as well.  We do not see any reason why the conference has to be 
cancelled or relocated at this point, and if you are wondering about what to 
do, please go ahead and make plans to participate in the conference in 
Osaka.  If you have any specific inquiries, please do not hesitate to contact 
us.

We appreciate the fact that so many people's thoughts are with us. The 
Conference Organizers would like to also show deepest sympathies toward 
those who live in the affected region.  We are hoping that the disaster 
control and recovery in the Tohoku-Kantoh Area will be smooth and 
effective.  

Thank you very much and looking forward to welcoming you in Osaka in 
July. 

Kikusawa Ritsuko
Director, ICHL20 Organizing Committee

Important Notice
Due to the recent earthquake in the Tohoku area on March 11, 2011, the 
Tokyo Electric Power Company has announced the possibility of temporary 
power outages until full power can be restored to the affected areas.  It is 
possible, therefore, that the ICHLXX website may be temporarily out of 
service during the blackout. If you cannot access the website, please try 
again after a few hours.

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!
