Dear LINGUIST List Subscribers,

As promised, the subfield which was in the lead at noon today
will be featured in tomorrow's chapter of the LINGQUEST Saga--
and, as you know from yesterday's news, that subfield is
sociolinguistics.  Congratulations, sociolinguistics! Superior
Whorf will be the valiant leader of the Illocutionary Force in
this week's quest.

Stay tuned for the third installment of the LINGQUEST Saga
tomorrow, and donate if you'd like your field to overtake
sociolinguistics (or if you'd like to keep sociolinguistics in
the lead):

This Year the LINGUIST List hopes to raise $67,000. This money will go to help 
keep the List running by supporting all of our Student Editors for the coming
year.

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Eastern Michigan University and as 
such can receive donations through the EMU Foundation, which is a registered 
501(c) Non Profit organization. Our Federal Tax number is 38-6005986. These 
donations can be offset against your federal and sometimes your state tax
return (U.S. tax payers only). For more information visit the IRS Web-Site,
or contact your financial advisor.

Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that they will match 
any gift you make to a non-profit organization. Normally this entails your 
contacting your human resources department and sending us a form that the 
EMU Foundation fills in and returns to your employer. This is generally a
simple administrative procedure that doubles the value of your gift to
LINGUIST, without costing you an extra penny. Please take a moment to check if
your company operates such a program.

Thank you very much for your support of LINGUIST!
