I just discovered this after recently becoming very interested in linguistics and anthropology...like Brianna, I'm still in college, but I hope to contribute to this project one day soon.
Until then, I hope the best for those at work on the project, you are doing wonderful work!
This is a fantastic project. Currently, I have completed my masters degree. I love learning about new languages and the possibility to save various disappearing languages is imperative work. I hope to be involved in this some day.
I would love to be able to be a part of this project one day. I'm still in college, I'm an Asian Studies major and I know it doesn't have much to do with linguistics, but I recently read an article in a 2007 National Geographic magazine about the project and I feel like I have found my calling. I'm going to try whatever I can to get involved!

I heard the story on NPR recently about the PBS special on this issue. Unfortunately I missed the PBS show. I have always felt passionately about this issue. After listening to that story it occurred to me that there might be a facebook group on this subject. That's how I found you! Keep up the good work and keep us all posted!!! I would love to help in any way that I can!
