Dear LINGUIST List Subscribers,

Back in January, we held office hours at the 2012 Linguistic Society of America.
In addition to the pleasure of talking with a lot of wonderful linguists, we had
the privilege of recording some vlogs (an adorable portmanteau of video + blog)
from LINGUIST List users telling us why they value LINGUIST.  A couple of choice
quotes:

"Do you want to find out what people are talking about in linguistics?  You can go
to LINGUIST List. It's a great resource.  It's made a huge difference for me."  
-Marianna Di Paolo, Center for American Indian Languages

"I look at LINGUIST List every single day.  It's my link to the world of
linguistics." -Julia James, independent researcher 

"I just want to give a shout out to LINGUIST List for all they've done to help
facilitate linguistic communication within the field."  -Gary Holton, Alaska Native
Language Center

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!
