    For those interested in pragmatics, discourse analysis, sociolinguistics, and the ethnography of speaking/communication: Volume 24 of the annual journal, RESEARCH ON LANGUAGE AND SOCIAL INTERACTION, has just been published. RoLSI is edited by Robert Sanders and Stuart Sigman, of SUNY-Albany, and is published by Boreal Scholarly Press (Edmonton, Canada). Volume 24 is over 450 pages, and contains a special section critically evaluating Michael Moerman's _Talking Culture_, an attempt to combine conversa- tion analysis and ethnography. For more information on RoLSI, a copy of the full table of contents, submission info, etc., please send your conventional surface address to: SJS97ALBNYVMS Stuart J. Sigman SUNY-Albany

    Awhile back there was a round of discussion about word processors and Auto- numbering of examples. For those who use the Mac and Microsoft Word, we currently have the opportunity to give input to the development team. They are soliciting input from users (and I suppose, potential users). If anyone is still interested in Auto-number for examples, I suggest you drop a note to: Microsoft Word for the Macintosh Development Team Microsoft Corporation One Microsoft Way Redmond, WA 98052P6399 If there are other useful features we might want. Perhaps it would be good to discuss them on the net so several of us could write to the development team. Dale Savage
