FW: Endangered languages conference

[Christopher Miller]

This posting appeared on LINGUIST today (26 June 2001). There are two
presentations dealing with SLs: one on Swedish-Finnish SL
(http://www.ling.helsinki.fi/sky/endabs.htm#Hoyer) and one on the effects of
cochlear implantation as a cause of language endangerment
(http://www.ling.helsinki.fi/sky/endabs.htm#Vonen).

Enjoy the (northern hemisphere) summer! (And to our southernmost colleagues:
hope you're enjoying the somewhat cooler season!)
