BILINGUAL
    Contact: [e-mail]

    Purpose: BILINGUAL was set up in March, 1996. It aims to provide
    researchers, teachers, and policy makers with an open forum to
    address issues that are related to bilingual education in Hong
    Kong and around the world.

    Hong Kong is undoubtedly one of the most fascinating places for
    linguists and applied linguists. Language education in Hong Kong
    is presently not just a hot intellectual issue, it is also a
    serious practical concern for every educator. We hope that this
    open forum would help researchers, teachers, and policy makers
    in Hong Kong on both theoretical and practical fronts. We also
    welcome suggestions from colleagues around the world who share
    our concerns over the Hong Kong situation. And of course, ideas
    and experiences in bilingual education from other parts of the
    world will be more than welcome as well.

    this way.  A definite interest in and commitment to the preservation,
    restoration and operation of vintage radio equipment is essential.
    A FAQ and daily digest format are available as well as a Boatanchor

    range of topics such as job design, technology infrastructure, change
    management, workflow management, administrative logistics, corporate
    re-engineering, and others. The field is rapidly growing. However,
    getting information about the latest developments seems to be as
    hard a job as understanding the phenomenon. BPR-L has been set up

BUFFETT (Jimmy Buffett Parrotheads)
    Contact: [e-mail]

    Purpose: For the discussion of Jimmy Buffett, his music, his books,
    and his lifestyle. This forum is a very open arena for praise and
    criticism of Buffett's body of work as well as a place where people
    with common interests can socialize. In the course of discussion,
    you may disagree with someone else's opinion. It is quite alright
    to carry a dissenting opinion in a civil way without being
    distasteful or personally insulting (in word or tone).
