The rules of the Cybalist group clearly say that discussion is to be
limited to the Indo-European family and should not engage in macrofamily
theories. Please stop doing this. You are slowly driving away at least
this member from what used to be a productive list before you started
posting all these irrational pet theories instead of what the academy
holds.
If someone could, off-list, let me know about any forum similar to this
but made up of professional linguists and serving to guide students into
the mainstream of the field, I would be grateful.
