            that we got so far from our supporters from all over the

            Every donation counts and shows us that there are people out
            there who appreciate the effort that our student editors,
            volunteers, interns and other supporters put into The
            LINGUIST List service. We do our best to provide the
            LINGUIST information and services in the best possible way,
            to all linguists worldwide. We will update you soon in a

          <p class="MsoNormal">Richard Hudson, an Advisory Board member
            of The LINGUIST List, has this message that I would like to
            forward to you:<o:p></o:p></p>
          <p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
          <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">At one time,
            not that long ago, linguistics was a national activity,
            which only some countries did, and did on their own, in
            their own way. Nowadays, globalisation has happened - almost
            every country does linguistics in some way, and more and
            more activity takes place on the world stage rather than a
            local national one. We have international conferences,
            international journals, international research projects and
            international theories and ideas. More and more students are
            moving around the globe to learn linguistics, and more
            departments boast an international collection of staff
            members. Globalisation has its causes, which we all
            understand to at least some extent, but it also has
            consequences, and one consequence is that we desperately
            need reliable global infrastructure to support the
            globalisation - to make sure that it benefits everyone, and
            not just the wealthy few; that it works efficiently, so that
            worthy aims can be achieved; and above all, that information
            flows freely. Which means, of course, that we need a global
            postbox and noticeboard remarkably like the Linguist List,
            so if LL didn't exist, someone would have to create it. And
            if we can have all sorts of useful facilities thrown in for
            good measure, we should rejoice. But global infrastructure
            needs to be reliable and permanent - think of the UN or your
            favourite global charity. It's no good expecting a handful
            of enthusiastic volunteers to provide it. Ultimately,
            infrastructure costs money. And this particular bit of
            infrastructure actually comes very, very cheap - at UK
            prices, it's the cost of about two cups of coffee per
            subscriber per year. I'm convinced that LL is one of the
            most important institutions in our academic world, and I
            believe that by supporting it I'm helping to give the next
            generation of linguists the global infrastructure they need.
            I'm also convinced that if we don't support it, we shall
            lose it and the next generation will have to create it from
            scratch.<o:p></o:p></p>
