Hi Mark,

I really enjoyed the parts I was able to attend even if the 
linguistics was over my head.

Mark,

I don't think my first attempt at this got sent thanks to Microsoft.

I wanted to congratulate you and the UNL gang on a terrific conference.  I don't think I've ever enjoyed a Siouan Conference so much.  There were no bad papers, and the hospitality was outstanding.  

John and his students did a great job too; I hope they will all stay interested and that we'll see them all, along with everyone else, next year in Chicago.

Mark -

I heartily agree with Bob's remarks;  thanks for all the hard work you 
put into this conference.  It was well worth the trip.  I am glad to 
hear that next year's conference will be in Chicago: Billings and 
Lincoln and Kaw City are fine places, but it will be fun, for a change, 
to tell my colleagues that I am going to a place they've heard of.

Best regards to you and Donna and your sons,

Hi again!  
I just said a reply to your other address, about music... will you be reading both of
them now?

Process the year's worth of business?  My advice is to not bother -- just act like you
joined the list today.  There hasn't been all that much business that didn't relate to
the conference...

OK -- now for the real business:
I DO want to get back to the Omaha sketch, as I hinted in Lincoln.  This summer is
pretty booked up and in the fall I'll be teaching too much as usual, but I CAN make time
for it if I just decide it's a priority.  

You sounded like you might be up for getting back to it too?  

We should talk about it soon -- it's become downright embarrassing and depressing that
it's not done after all these years; one or both of us should just sit down and finish
it.  

I'm home for the next week; the first time since early May that I've had more than a day
or two in Wayne.  In between unpacking and dealing with the overgrown yard and all the
accumulated mail and nonsense, I'll try to at least get out the old draft and see where
we were and how much more needs to be done.  (My memory is that we had at least fairly
good drafts of everything except the chapter on the verb and maybe things like syntax --
it will need cutting and tightening to fit within the page limit and those one or two
remaining chapters are the hardest ones, so it's not really close to done, but -- with a
little concentrated work it shouldn't take long.)  Some time a year or two ago I started
going through it and making formatting-free, plain text versions of the chapters so
they'd be easier to work with -- that's the last time I looked at it, but at that time I
remember being pleasantly surprised at how much good stuff there was there.  Bob's two
papers on prefixes and enclitics could serve as a guide for much of the verb chapter.  

After this coming week, I'll be away again for another couple of weeks -- a few days
back in Lincoln to work with Mark and David (grad student data-entry guy) on the Omaha
dictionary database, and then up to Wisconsin again for family and dance stuff.  I'll
have some free time while on the road, will be in an Omaha frame of mind in Lincoln, and
will have wi-fi at least in Lincoln and Madison; could do some little editing but won't
have big stretches of time for concentrated work.  After July 15 or so I'm back in Wayne
for a solid month before fall classes start; my hope is that by July we'll have a plan
of action and that month will be a time to get this thing at least mostly done.  The
time all too easily gets filled up with other things (writing draft #2 of comparative
siouan paper, dictionary data entry, garden weeding, lying in the hammock with a cold
drink...)  

What do you think?  
Catherine

Hi, All,
 
Many of you already have a copy of William Whitman's 1947 Descriptive Grammar of Ioway-Oto from IJAL (Sans the last page of the manuscript.  I can get that out later, but it refers primarily to the causative, not to wa-, so it won't matter for now.  For any of you (especially the Windy City folks :) complaining about a lack of material on Chiwere subgroup for your comparative projects (on, things like, Oh,I don't know, maybe wa-  :).  It's brief and densely packed, but I haven't found anything I would consider "wrong" in it yet.  Maybe I just don't know enough to judge.  But it's better than nothing, and surely the "directional" wa- does deserve to be cast in amongst the other worms in the proverbial can...

Hi again!  
I just said a reply to your other address, about music... will you be reading both of
them now?

Process the year's worth of business?  My advice is to not bother -- just act like you
joined the list today.  There hasn't been all that much business that didn't relate to
the conference...

OK -- now for the real business:
I DO want to get back to the Omaha sketch, as I hinted in Lincoln.  This summer is
pretty booked up and in the fall I'll be teaching too much as usual, but I CAN make time
for it if I just decide it's a priority.  

You sounded like you might be up for getting back to it too?  

We should talk about it soon -- it's become downright embarrassing and depressing that
it's not done after all these years; one or both of us should just sit down and finish
it.  

I'm home for the next week; the first time since early May that I've had more than a day
or two in Wayne.  In between unpacking and dealing with the overgrown yard and all the
accumulated mail and nonsense, I'll try to at least get out the old draft and see where
we were and how much more needs to be done.  (My memory is that we had at least fairly
good drafts of everything except the chapter on the verb and maybe things like syntax --
it will need cutting and tightening to fit within the page limit and those one or two
remaining chapters are the hardest ones, so it's not really close to done, but -- with a
little concentrated work it shouldn't take long.)  Some time a year or two ago I started
going through it and making formatting-free, plain text versions of the chapters so
they'd be easier to work with -- that's the last time I looked at it, but at that time I
remember being pleasantly surprised at how much good stuff there was there.  Bob's two
papers on prefixes and enclitics could serve as a guide for much of the verb chapter.  

After this coming week, I'll be away again for another couple of weeks -- a few days
back in Lincoln to work with Mark and David (grad student data-entry guy) on the Omaha
dictionary database, and then up to Wisconsin again for family and dance stuff.  I'll
have some free time while on the road, will be in an Omaha frame of mind in Lincoln, and
will have wi-fi at least in Lincoln and Madison; could do some little editing but won't
have big stretches of time for concentrated work.  After July 15 or so I'm back in Wayne
for a solid month before fall classes start; my hope is that by July we'll have a plan
of action and that month will be a time to get this thing at least mostly done.  The
time all too easily gets filled up with other things (writing draft #2 of comparative
siouan paper, dictionary data entry, garden weeding, lying in the hammock with a cold
drink...)  

What do you think?  
Catherine

I have resuscitated my CU email.
Next step is to process a year's worth of business ...

Oh, geez -- you'd think I'd know by now to check the "to" line.  
Sorry for sending you all my note meant just for John

Subject: Whitman's Grammar of Ioway-Oto (sic!)  For the comparative folks
 complaining about no data for Jiwere...
Message-ID: <THU.25.JUN.2009.163926.0500.>

Hi, All,
 
Many of you already have a copy of William Whitman's 1947 Descriptive Grammar of Ioway-Oto from IJAL (Sans the last page of the manuscript.  I can get that out later, but it refers primarily to the causative, not to wa-, so it won't matter for now.  For any of you (especially the Windy City folks :) complaining about a lack of material on Chiwere subgroup for your comparative projects (on, things like, Oh,I don't know, maybe wa-  :).  It's brief and densely packed, but I haven't found anything I would consider "wrong" in it yet.  Maybe I just don't know enough to judge.  But it's better than nothing, and surely the "directional" wa- does deserve to be cast in amongst the other worms in the proverbial can...

The conference was truly good, in all ways.  Hope everyone is still inspired to keep the momentum going.  
 
Best wishes,
Jill
