On Discovering People's Email Address (for those who don't know):

if you know someone's name, but not their email address, the easiest
way to find out is:
at the unix prompt ( ucsu>  or something similar) type

411 <firstname> <lastname>

(actually, the order of the names doesn't matter.  actually, how Many
names doesn't matter)

this will call up any adress info. for that name, if it can be found.
if the person has an email account, you will see that listed too--voila!
give it a shot for practice--it's Really useful.

also: ling-dept goes to EVERYBODY in linguistics; ling-grads goes
only to graduate students.  ling-help gets you answers to every conceivable
question you might have, with some exceptions.

and the answer is...

*This is for Holly and the others in the group doing Mongolian for the
*semester project in Morph & Syntax.
*I'm already 2 hours overdue on my promised transliteration from Cyrillic
*to Latin orthography, and now I can't get it to you!
*The only way I can see to deliver it as at Ibrahim's Gattah.
*So, come one, come all, let's all meet at Ibrahim's tonight!
*Dharm

continue to insist that there is no such thing as progress.  -- Ransom K. Ferm
