It's quite reciprocated - as I am new to the New World it's the first time I see this name applied to something small and stuffed :-)))
In the meanwhile something has come up that might be of some interest to you. In fact I've just discovered a grant of my dreams - I am working on a diachronic digital culinary thesaurus (starting with Latin food names and their Romance derivates) and I would like to include you in the team for the proposal very much - as somebody who is really interested in food and food names, and an accomplished linguist (Catalan and Basque are very important to the project, and hopefully at a later stage we will be able to tackle even Romance food words assimilated into Oriental languages - like tempura etc., and I think it would be rathe up your street too). I don't know whether you hold any academic position right now or not but this is not too important. So if you are interested I could send you an e-mail with more details on it. Does your userinfo e-mail adress admit gmail? Unfortunately it's a very serious grant-issuer and deadline is almost upon us, so please answer me as soon as you can. It could be rather renumerative (for the part-time internet work I mean) - at least I am certainly trying to make it so, but I had only individual grants before so I don't know whether the panel of judges does a lot of budget cutting.
