Moderator:Clarification of Synchronic vs. Historical Linguistics

[Elizabeth J. Pyatt]

As one of one of the repondants asked

"(So etymology is no longer linguistics?)"

It is of course, but this brings up an important issue from Andrew
Carnie's days as moderator. Way back in the ancient days of the
mid-90's it was noted that there are a variety of Listservs that
serve the older Celtic languages including continental-celtic and Old
Irish-L.

Hence, when I said "linguistics" in the question of topic coverage, I
should have said "synchronic linguistics". If you have a preference
on whether you want to cover diachronic linguistics or not, please
note that. :)

Thanks again.
