I would like to thank everyone, but particularly those long time CASLL members, for the warm welcome you gave me as a rookie conference participant. Sometimes, when you attempt to join a relatively small group of people who have a history together, it is virtually impossible to "break in." But this was never an issue for me, thanks to everyone's friendliness. I also want to thank those of you who gave me written and spoken feedback on my presentation. It was encouraging to hear that the ideas I will be pursuing in my doctorate are of interest already to members of the academic community.
