*****GK: You didn't annoy me at all David. In fact I
found much of your last message highly stimulating. I
admit that I WAS annoyed by someone else on another
list, and on an entirely different topic. I didn't
realize that this "showed" a bit here, and apologize
for this quite unintended carry-over...

May I ask a question on something to do with Indic and
Iranian linguistics? I understand that Iranic
sometimes (always?) drops Indic "s" or substitutes an
"h" at the beginning or middle of words. Does Iranic
also occasionally add an "s" before certain
consonants, like "p" or "k"? Thus "S"kolot (not all
agree that the "s" is an affix to a name built on the
personal name Kol (aksai)); or "s"pal- for pal- et
sim.?****
