Re: [tied] *h3 (More deja-vu)

Miguel, making no sense:

>we have *d > *h1 and *h1k > g, which is more readily explained by /?/.

Me, being funny:

>So... maybe *h1 was a voiced glottal stop.

Peter, not getting it:

>No, it doesn't have to be.

Piotr, clubbing my linguistic joke to death:

>There is no such thing as a voiced glottal stop, by the way.

Ugh. That's the last time I try to be funny on this list >:( Then again,
ever heard the one about a velar fricative and a retroflex stop walking into
a bar...

(I still am maintaining that *H1 was one phoneme with two simple allophones,
initial [?] and mediofinal [h]. I'm right. Everyone else is wrong :P)
