<html><body bgcolor="#FFFFFF"><div>If I remember, we are the same three from the last time you asked. ;-) Could this be all that is on list right now that is even close enough to being able to go to Washington DC? If so, I don't know how much asking here will get enough people. Maybe ask people in the area. I don't think that it would be needed to be that they are SignWriters. Maybe just interested is enough? Also, I have found that we Americans (especially Deaf Americans) are followers in general. So instead of saying would you be interested in maybe having a workshop (or whatever) in Washington DC, maybe we can ask people in the area "we will be having a workshop on SignWriting in Washington DC, would you like to go?" If they ask, when say that we are getting a feel for who is interested so that we know how best to set it up, and get contact info. If the person asks what is SignWriting, then say that it's a way to write sign languages and what better way to see what it is then to come. The reason I say this that I have come to see that conferences and workshops only work out best when there is a strong support and attendence in the place where it is held. After that happens, then people from afar will come and fill in. </div><div><br></div><div>Adam <br><br>On Sep 4, 2009, at 3:50 AM, "Charles Butler" <<a href="mailto:chazzer3332000@yahoo.com">chazzer3332000@yahoo.com</a>> wrote:<br><br></div><div></div><blockquote type="cite"><div><table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0"><tbody><tr><td valign="top" style="font: inherit;">Kim from Boston - Three<br><br>--- On <b>Fri, 9/4/09, Kimberley Shaw <i><<a href="mailto:skifoot@gmail.com">skifoot@gmail.com</a>></i></b> wrote:<br><blockquote style="border-left: 2px solid rgb(16, 16, 255); margin-left: 5px; padding-left: 5px;"><br>From: Kimberley Shaw <<a href="mailto:skifoot@gmail.com">skifoot@gmail.com</a>><br>Subject: Re: [sw-l] WRITING SIGN LANGUAGES Workshop - Interest<br>To: "SignWriting List" <<a href="mailto:sw-l@majordomo.valenciacc.edu">sw-l@majordomo.valenciacc.edu</a>><br>Date: Friday, September 4, 2009, 6:43 AM<br><br><div class="plainMail">Hello all:<br>count me in, too, even if editing my "met Deaf wow" novel has taken<br>over my life these days!<br>Am truly surprised there are so many off-list SignWriters.
