You really had to reach far back in the dusty time machine to find this 25 1/2-year-old thread to tell how much you relish ketchup. Good grief. |

Stan is still extant, apparently. he is on the faculty roster he https://its.temple.edu/computer-serv...artment?page=4 And he's on LinkedIn: Stan Horwitz Data Protection Specialist and Systems Manager at Temple University So good for Stan! He was always a bit "pedantic", but in a good way... ;-) Another rec.travel.air peep, and also worked at Temple and knew Stan, was Ellen Prince, a linguist. She was very smart, funny and a character. She was *very* pro - smoking and would try to obtain all of her cigs from Australia, where there are/were gruesome anti - smoking labels on tobacco (like pix of poor souls with diseased jawbones, etc.)...she had a "morbid" sense of humor, ya might say... She HATED that she could not smoke in - flight, and by 2000 or so when she flew internationally she flew Aeroflot Russian Airlines 'cuz they still allowed smoking. If she went to Paris or anywhere else in Europe/Asia she'd fly via Aeroflot from JFK, transit in Moscow, and then another Aeroflot flight to Paris or London or wherever. IIRC she once attended a seminar in Cuba, and instead of flying on one of the US charters or via Canada to Havana, she FLEW FROM JFK TO MOSCOW on Aeroflot, transited in Moscow for another Aeroflot flight to HAVANA...and thence BACK TO THE US via Moscow...I think she did Tokyo that way, too... From watching John Waters movies, I was always fascinated by the "Baltimore accent" that many of his actors had. We exchanged some emails about this, she was very kind and helpful - and also funny as hell; she adored Woody Allen, knew a lot about car repair, and raised roses. A true "Renaissance Woman"...!!! And despite me being on WebTV at the time, she was still very nice to me ;-) And her use of Yiddish cracked me up... Ob food, Ellen, from Brooklyn, said that "Jewish women who have any money DO NOT cook!" She and her banker hubby lived in Rittenhouse Square in a nice townhouse, the range had been installed years earlier and it was still in in its mint "factory wrapping", it had not once been used. EVERY meal was eaten out...in the fridge they kept champagne, lol... Those were the types of folks that used to be on Usenet... Ellen, alas, has vamoosed from this mortal coil, expiring from - what else!? - lung cancer: https://languagelog.ldc.upenn.edu/nll/?p=2740 "R.I.P. Ellen Prince October 27, 2010 @ 6:09 pm ยท Filed by Mark Liberman under Obituaries A note from the Penn Linguistics Department, written by Gillian Sankoff and Tony Kroch: It is with great sadness that we announce the death of our colleague Ellen F. Prince. Ellen died peacefully at home in Philadelphia on Sunday, October 24, 2010 after a long battle with cancer. After earning her doctorate in linguistics at the University of Pennsylvania in 1974, Ellen joined the faculty of the Penn Linguistics Department in the same year. She taught here until her retirement in 2005 and served as chair of our department from 1993 to 1997. Ellen was also active in the affairs of the Linguistic Society of America, serving on the executive committee and in many other capacities. She was noted for her interdisciplinary perspective and held a secondary appointment in Penn's Computer and Information Sciences Department. Among her many honors were the Presidency of the Linguistic Society of America in 2008 and election as a fellow of the AAAS in 2009. A pioneer in linguistic pragmatics, Ellen worked on her own and with many colleagues and students on various aspects of the subject. Several of her incisive and tightly argued papers became classics in the field. She is perhaps best known for her typology of information statuses in discourse, based on the study of naturally-occurring data; but she also devoted major efforts to the study of the pragmatic functions of syntactic constructions, including the various species of cleft and left-periphery constructions, including topicalization and left-dislocation. She had a particular interest in Yiddish and used her knowledge of that language to do ground-breaking work on the cross-linguistic comparison of the pragmatic functions of syntactic constructions. In later years, she continued her work on the referential status of noun phrases in the framework of centering theory, as developed by colleagues Aravind Joshi, Scott Weinstein and Barbara Grosz. Ellen was an inspirational and caring teacher, imparting high intellectual standards while at the same time providing solid support and mentoring to her many students. We missed her acutely when she retired from our department; she will be even more sorely missed now and for years to come. Friends, colleagues and students who would like to remember Ellen Prince by making a charitable donation are asked to donate to the American Lung Association..." </> -- Best Greg |

He was, but he crossed the line with that "No Legs Murphy" shit. Blake was no friend of mine, but... Then there's that worthless turd, Greg Morrow, who used the phrase, "Slant Eyes." That's not OK. A person's ethnicity and culture are more or less kind of fair game, if they're relevant to the topic, but racial characteristics are never OK. And to Jebus, who suggested that my wife of all people had named her Halloween dessert "Spooktacular," out of racial animus, I want to tell you this. When I told her about that, she had never known of the pejorative, "spook." She, unlike me, didn't grow up with racism, and has been an active anti-racist since long before it was popular. She doesn't have a bigoted bone in her body. She's been a children's librarian in the community where we live since 1992, and when she started her job at a library where some of the older White women who worked there had double standards, letting White patrons check out books when they had outstanding fines, but not extending the same exceptions to Black patrons, and she was having none of that. The library director at the time let it go on, and she risked her job by demanding that the practice had to stop. Oh, but it went much further. When the book, *King and King* came out, she put it into the children's collection, and has put up with outright persecution by social conservatives for decades, including incidents that included vandalism and ceaseless harassment. Others in the community objected to her buying Bible stories for children, as she had more of them in her collection than most other libraries in St. Louis County, but she was buying well written books that were requested by patrons, without regard to ideology. That's what librarians are supposed to do, and she did it, and continues to do it. However one feels about *me*, Betsy is far beyond reproach. Anyone who attacks her here should know that she's gotten a lot worse, and her personal integrity has never wavered. The most you could justifiably question is how such a saintly woman could possibly be married to a guy like me, and I cannot, nor will not, comment upon that. > > Jill --Bryan |

This time of year and being a treat, there is only one logical conclusion. Unless you like to make racists comments. |
