Right on, Carolyn. There actually isn't a treeline; what happens is that
as you trudge northwards on snowshoes with the wind howling in your ears,
the trees get smaller and smaller, but we're not actually quite that far
north. All the vegetation is pretty well normal size here, and by
24 May we should have full spring. Hard to predict, though;
the weather god might arrange some special effects for you if you ask him
nicely. I have what looks to be primordial forest in my back
garden, but it isn't, really. Has Longfellow gotten on to the
Siouan list? You'd need to be going to Nova Scotia,
anyway.<br><br>
I'll see what I can do about primordial stuff and also about Super
8. I'm not easily offended, we get lame Usonian jokes all the
time. <br><br>
Best, <br>
Mary<br><br>

I think the forest that still stands in primeval anyway, not primordial,

<dd>Super 8 is my preferred motel. Shame about the tree line.
I was looking forward to a primordial forest. How much further
would I have to go?

<dd>What is the Super 8? We are nowhere near the treeline,
colleagues. We are at approximately 52 degrees N latitude.<br>

<dd>Hello Bruce
<dd>The dates for SCLC are 24-25 May. The Canadian Linguistics
Association meeting starts on 26 May and continues through 29 May.
I just heard that the CLA program is now being finalized.

<dd>Hello Ardis,
<dd>The dates we are looking at are: either 24-25 May or 30-31
May. The Canadian Linguistics Association is meeting here
(Saskatoon) from 26 - 29 May,as part of the Congress of Humanities and
Social Sciences. I favour the earlier dates (24-25) for the SCLC,
so that we could continue into the CLA meetings, if necessary, because
some would like to attend the latter as well as the SCLC. There are
some undecided matters: 1) Are we going to have a comparative
grammar workshop, or discussions about the contents of the volumes we
were planning last year? 2) We don't yet know the CLA Program (soon
to be available, I gather) - so we don't know which sessions of the
latter would be most appealing to our people.
<dd>It would be great if you could come. Both Canada and the US
require children of any age to either have their own passports or to be
included on their parents' passports. You need to check the
details with your local passport office.
<dd>Best,
<dd>Mary
<dd>PS: I really like your dissertation and look forward to meeting
you if it works out.

<dd>I'd very much like to come but am not sure due to pregnancy.
The later it is, the more pregnant I'll be. (And there were some
complications. Now, everything is good again, but 3 weeks of bed
rest leaves me less self-assured of how easy everything will go.)
<dd>I've got a passport. Do young children need one as well?

<dd>Hello all,
<dd>I am working on this and will soon have a more detailed message. It would really help if I could get some idea of how many will be able to attend. I would be glad to hear from anybody who can give me a definite answer now.
