1. I'm not aware/I wasn't aware about your past postings on the
phonetical value of the laryngeals.

2) If you don't want to post their phonetical values
=> please don't use the phonetical value of laryngeals as an argument

It's a non-sense.

To accuse Mrs. Olsen? Of course not. For what to accused her?
For the fact that there are some issues in one of her theory?
I never mixed the persons with the ideas...
And who here or elsewhere didn't make any mistake by asserting
different things?


But is you, Piotr, than could be accused to act as a lawyer:
Whenever you will defend something against some obvious facts
(only because is the name of Mrs Olsen in discussion, as it seems to
be the case now ) => I can tell you that you act as a lawyer not as a
scholar

As you can see, at least Miguel, took seriously into account the
obvious issues of her theory, trying to come with some improvements

Unfortunately it wasn't your case too and not because you are unable
to see that issues => and for this you can be accused for sure...

Not by me, of course, because is not my business : I saw this only
accidentally (reading and talking about -dHeh1- sufix): because I was
surprised to see how you could ignore some obvious issues especially
when this is not your usual way to be...at least since I could have
seen you on this forum.

Sorry, finally I don't know if it was better or not to tell you all
these ...

P.S. I also hope that this is not a forum where everybody should
say YES when we are talking about the theories of Mrs. Olsen or Mr.
Rasmussen. Their ideas will stand-up by themselves if they are strong
enough...(and is usually the case)
