Read the thoughts of others! Contribute and read your memories, thoughts, and observations at http://echo.gmu.edu/memory. ECHO, an academic project dedicated to archiving the history of science, actively seeks personal stories and other materials related to both the Space Shuttle Columbia disaster and the first Moonwalk. We are collecting the ideas, memories, and emotional responses of private citizens as well as the stories and technical observations of scientists. We also accept photgraphs, audio recordings, moving images, and any other media that can be stored digitally. By filling out our survey or emailing us your thoughts, stories, or other materials, you will make an indelible contribution to the recorded history of space travel -- a contribution that will benefit future generations of scientists, historians, and other researchers. You may opt to have your observations posted on the Web either with with your name or anonymously. You may also request that your survey response not be posted on the Web. All responses will be permanently archived and made available to historians and researchers. ******************************************************************** DIALECT SPEAKERS AND LINGUISTICS Find Resources for African American Black Vernacular, Creole, Patois, A pidgin is a new language which develops in situations where speakers of different languages need to communicate but don't share a common language. <http://www.edu-cyberpg.com/Linguistics/Home_Linguistics.html> ******************************************************************** Projects: http://echo.gmu.edu/moonwalk http://echo.gmu.edu/shuttle Email: info@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Note: The ECHO project is a part of George Mason University's Center for History and New Media.
