I had a great time in PEI last year at the APLA conference. A highlight was my first radio appearance discussing academic work. Karen Mair interviewed me for Mainstreet PEI She was an excellent host and I really enjoyed the experience. Here's the sound file if you want to listen to it:

Thanks, Jahnavi. Good to hear from you too. PEI is a very friendly place, as is UPEI, and Anne Furlong is there. She's a fantastic teacher and researcher on language and literary linguistics. Hope all is well with you. Come and see us if you're ever in London B--)

Very interesting interview Billy - thanks for all the great posts - its great to stay in touch with debate around language...
PEI is a great place isn't it? I was there a few years ago too - I wouldn't have thought it a place for a linguistics conference...
