> Dear friends and colleagues in linguistics,
>
>
> The annual meeting of NELS has been going strong for 39 years,  
> providing a forum for presentation and discussion of innovative  
> work in all areas of generative linguistics. In mid-June of this  
> year, it came to our attention that, unfortunately, no institution  
> had volunteered to host the conference this coming fall (2009).  
> Because we believe that the yearly NELS meeting is an important  
> opportunity for the linguistic community and should not be skipped,  
> we volunteered to host NELS 40 at MIT in the fall of 2009. However,  
> as it is already late in the NELS season, we hope you will forgive  
> us for delaying the whole schedule by a few weeks.
>
>
>
> While we will advertise the conference and call for papers on the  
> linguistlist, we worry that since the usual nels-related deadlines  
> have past with no announcements, that people will think that NELS  
> will not take place this year.
>
> For this reason, we would like to ask for your help in  
> disseminating information about the conference by forwarding the  
> call for papers below to your local linguistic community.

> With best wishes and many thanks in advance,
