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

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.

Dear Colleagues,

I am looking for native speakers of English who are willing to complete 
an online survey on the interpretation of comparative expressions (part 
of a project on comparatives, joint with Ora Matushansky). Please see 
the recruitment message below. Both linguists and non-linguists are 
encouraged to participate - please forward this message to other 
native English speakers. 

Thank you!
Tania Ionin

**Recruitment Message**
Native speakers of English are being invited to participate in a study of 
how certain grammatical structures are interpreted in English. The 
study involves answering a short survey on the web, about the 
acceptability of certain structures in English. The study will take 
between 15 and 30 minutes to complete; there is no compensation for 
participation.

If you are a  native speaker of English and would like to participate, 
please send an email to Tania Ionin, tionin at illinois.edu. If you prefer to 
remain anonymous, please go directly to the url for the survey:
