[Lgpolicy] Recognizing Hal Schiffman

Wed May 31 00:31:59 UTC 2023

I'm so glad for the 'resurrection' of the Language Lists. I am so happy to
see this list of Hal's Written Legacy. I know that each review, article,
chapter and book was a labor of love and became one of his Mental Children.
I am also happy to see all the recent summaries of language articles and
look forward to having the time to read each one of the full articles. Hal
truly loved the List Serve and was so grateful when Dr. Hult was able to
take over this important communication to the world of Language Warriors
and Lovers. Thank you.
