Dear Dilworth B. Parkinson,

When posting messages to the list, could you please
put the answers together with the original questions ?

Thank you for taking care of this "very" intersting list.

[moderator's note: This message was sent to me, not the list, but I
decided to post it so that those of you wondering about it would
know.  I have usually avoided including the original questions with
the responses since that makes the messages inordinately long in some
cases, and since multiple responses keep adding up.  In a few cases I
leave in a quote from the query when the response is responding to a
specific part of the query that may not be remembered.  If I feel
that the gist of the query can be figured out from the heading and
the content of the message, I leave it out.  I am willing to
reconsider this policy, so if you have feelings on the subject, let
me know.  I'll tally the results, and make a decision in the next few
weeks.  Dil]

ArabicL is a tremendous service to us all in the Arabic language
profession, whether teacher or learner (is there a difference?!), and
it obviously requires a great deal of time and effort.  I would like
to express my appreciation and thanks to Brigham Young University and
staff and most of all to Dil Parkinson for this fantastic service
that they are providing to us all.

Ma`a jaziili l-shukr, wa-aHarri l-tamanniyaat.
