================================================================  

We'd like to remind readers that the responses to queries are usually
best posted to the individual asking the question. That individual is
then strongly encouraged to post a summary to the list. This policy was
instituted to help control the huge volume of mail on LINGUIST; so we
would appreciate your cooperating with it whenever it seems appropriate.

In addition to posting a summary, we'd like to remind people that it
is usually a good idea to personally thank those individuals who have
taken the trouble to respond to the query.

To post to LINGUIST, use our convenient web form at

I am trying to find someone in the linguistic community who has been
interested or has worked (mainly on how to communicate) with people with
language loss (i.e. deafness)and/or language disorders (i.e. aphasia) in
environmental emergencies management (i.e. earthquakes, riverwash, an so on).

This interest is strictly linked to a project on risk prevention hold by
the University of Calabria (Italy). 

Linguistic Field(s): Applied Linguistics
