I think this theory was discussed on the list long, long ago,
probably before Message 7100, though I don't remember much discussion
of actual vocabulary. Awkward clusters like ks- have been discussed,
e.g. in http://groups.yahoo.com/group/cybalist/message/7704 . Look
in the message index for follow up discussion; the postings aren't
listed as 'replies'. And, of course, you might dig something up out
of Pokorny.
