January ADS Newsletter

[Dennis R. Preston]

Allan,

Cut out my hard copy.

Dennis



>Guess what - the January issue of NADS is actually out in January! Thanks to
>webmaster Grant Barrett, you can get it now if you go to our website
>
>http://www.americandialect.org/
>
>and click on the pdf download.
>
>The issue has calls for papers for all known ADS meetings in the rest of
>2003, and then some. It also reports on Executive Council business at our
>recent meeting, and of course there are those elusive words DARE would like
>to know more about.
>
>The old-fashioned hard-copy version is at the printer now. It will be next
>week before that gets sent out by old-fashioned postal service. If you have
>paid ADS dues for 2003, you'll be sure to get a copy, and even those who paid
>for 2002 but haven't quite yet paid for 2003 will be sent copies too. If
>you're not an ADS member but would like this, merely one of the least of the
>benefits of membership, go to the website and click on "Become a member" and
>see what excitement follows.
>
>If you're a member but would be content to forego the old-fashioned copy by
>mail, please let me know: AAllan at aol.com, and I won't trouble you with one,
>and you'll save us 37 cents or more.
>
>- Allan Metcalf, executive secretary, ADS
