EDIT:
fj (thank you!!!) has provided information for the first interview, so I now have something to turn in tomorrow, but I am still very much interested in other people's responses to this interview, so feel free to contribute anyway. I may still be able to use the material, and also it's really interesting. Just think of it like one of those 20? (more like 200? rite) memes that make the rounds here. ;-)
My first interviewee flaked completely on me. I can't even reach her.
I blew the second one by running late for the interview, and he wasn't in class today and hasn't responded to my email.
I desperately need something to turn it tomorrow.
If any of you are multilingual, especially from childhood, or learned additional languages with immersion, please help me out by taking this survey. Or if you know someone who meets these criteria and is willing and able to help me with useful answers to the interview questions, please draw their attention to this.
The guy said he couldn't open the GDocs files, so I have made PDFs of them, and I am setting those to public so any of you can view them. I'd upload them here if I could. The questions are also embedded in the original entry I made last week, for those on my FList.

If you can help or have given this info to someone who can, PLEASE email me (
klarth.lester@gmail.com) or have them do so today. I won't be able to check email until after work tonight (11pm CST), and I have class at noon tomorrow. I need to have interview/survey notes and ideally the consent form by then to turn in
Again, I can fax the form to you if necessary.
I have to get this going tonight, or early tomorrow morning at the latest.
Thank you.
