_I_ know that, _you_ know that. Let's hope _everybody_ knows that...
Unfortunately, sometimes I question the nature of some discussions
provoked by Dr K -- That is the real meaning behind my previous
statements.

Sometimes I question K's obsession with the Out-Of-India hypothesis
that could be deemed racially motivated, considering the lack of
evidence and a deep lack of fundamental sense to the hypothesis itself.
Why hold on to something that is completely unsubstantiated unless
there were an emotional bias involved. But that's my opinion anyways.
