A very happy 70th birthday to Adam Ant, born as Stuart Goddard in Marylebone, London on this day in 1954. It's easy to lay down and hide, where's the warrior without his pride?

Thanks @AdamCSchembri and @DrRosamundOates for publishing historical work in the most recent Newsli from ASLI! Discussed it this morning at virtual #BSL tutoring with @PeterBr92242281 and @LinZ_PhD🙌

Finally learned one of my research gifts is to work in a domain I don't know as well as my own, and discover/solve things that the presumed knowers were too confident to look up

Can any colleagues at @HOGGroup or @Geology_History or @RUGeoMuseum point me toward a source that could help me identify the contents of this Cargille mineral specimen kit? From the estate of a 92 y/o geologist who recently passed away. All boxes numbered 1-55 are here + extras

@SnoozeCarey @MarshsLibrary Oh yes that's an oldie and a goodie :^)

I got to voice the term "overhead projector" today. Younger #1ntSL team was duly impressed

A 22-year old person just had to write something down for me to keep AND HE ASKED ME IF I COULD READ CURSIVE

@AdamCSchembri @ScottishSL @ucl @Dcal @DCAL_UCL @PeterBr92242281 I haven't found the one in mind yet, but here's a judgment in 1962 from a leading English missioner of deaf parents that Scottish interpreters' work made extensive omissions

[Interpreter History, PhD @interphistory]

Sorry Sutton and von der Leith, transposing dance notation onto signed language was posed by Prof. Daniel Jones of @ucl in the 1930s, inspired by Margaret Morris' "Danscript" (The Notation of Movement, 1928) 1/2

[Interpreter History, PhD @interphistory]

@AdamCSchembri @ScottishSL @ucl @Dcal @DCAL_UCL @PeterBr92242281 Again, I'm happy to share sources but I recall they had an unflattering opinion on Scottish signing. Also see the Brown and Leahy SLS article that cites an early idea to name BSL was ESL

[Interpreter History, PhD @interphistory]

@ScottishSL @AdamCSchembri @ucl @Dcal @DCAL_UCL @PeterBr92242281 Will do! :^D Lovely to "meet" you and happy to share
