<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Dear
Lowlanders,</p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"> </p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">It’s
that time of the year again ... Yep! LL-L anniversary month is coming up: April 15 - May 15! <br><br>It’s going to be our <b>sixteenth</b> anniversary! Can you
believe it? And some of us have been in it from the very beginning!</p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"> </p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Most
of you know what I’m getting at: our anniversary pages:<br>
<a href="http://lowlands-l.net/anniversary/">http://lowlands-l.net/anniversary/</a></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"> </p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">This
is just a reminder of its existence, and for some of you this serves as a
reminder of erstwhile promises ...</p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"> </p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">It’s
time again to pay attention to this our best known and internationally most
lauded presentation.</p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"> </p><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span><p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Only
the day before yesterday someone, a non-member, in Grodno, Belarus,
added a wonderful sound file to the previously posted Belarusian version of the
wren story: <a href="http://lowlands-l.net/anniversary/bielaruskaja.php">http://lowlands-l.net/anniversary/bielaruskaja.php</a></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"> </p><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span><p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Outside
the Lowlands focus we have some rare gems, such as Ainu, Livonian, Norman, Walloon, Rhaeto-Roman, Sardinian, Papiamentu,
Sorbian, Sámi, Crimean Turkic, Coptic, Mauritian, Siraiki, Batak, Tausug, Sama,
and Yoeme ... These represent our celebration of linguistic diversity in
general. <br></p><p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><br></p><p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">And we definitely have a lot of actual Lowlands
gems. But we could do with a lot more. Please consider helping to add to our <span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span>language diversity showcasing project! Please just
write to me if you have any questions or additions or anything in-between.</p>
