Dear LINGUIST Listers,

Have you tried your wits yet in our Puzzle of the week? 

There's still time to win some Speculative Grammarian gear! On GeoLing
(http://geoling.linguistlist.org/), visit the scenic island location mentioned
in a Linguimerick in the March 2017 issue of Speculative Grammarian for the
first clue!

And for some additional fun that is not related to the game, here is a
Linguimerick specially provided to us by SpecGram:

There once was a List named LINGUÍST
That featured a cool little twist:
 ’Twas made for those nerds
 who’re in love with words.
Now give ’em cash—hand over fist!
 —α-Betty Abū Gida

PS: If you felt moved by the above poem, now longing to contribute to our
cause, you can visit this link: http://funddrive.linguistlist.org/
