What's Camunic?

Answering my own question:

Larry Trask wrote at
http://www.linguistlist.org/~ask-ling/archive-1998.7/msg00603.html
"Camunic, sparsely recorded in NW Italy and written in the Etruscan
alphabet, may possibly also have been related, but the evidence is too
sparse to allow any safe conclusions."

If this is not a safe conclusion, why do you mention it? Or do you
have bones to pick with Trask?
