I fully agree with Piotr. Sensable rules are *required* in comparative
linguistics. Connections by whim are logically without purpose or reason.
Supplying reasonable dates and ways in which AA/IE contact could occur must
be provided before any of these connections can be taken seriously. However,
it's been some 150 years... You'd think something would come of this theory
yet if it were worth a grain of salt.

Even Starostin offers better sound rules than you do, Torsten. If rules are
not offered, a true connection cannot be distinguished from random chaos.
