Argumentative Steve to Peter:
>Anatolia is in no way eliminated by what you're suggesting.
Anatolia is validly eliminated by way of Occam's Razor. The yoyo
migration, the lack of hydronyms (which tend to be linguistically
conservative) of IE origin in Anatolia, and the very likely
relationship of IE to Uralic, Altaic and EskimoAleut all sufficiently
and conclusively show in toto that your views are far more assumptive
than a pre-IE origin in Central Asia. It is comparative probability
that diminishes your views considerably.
There's little else to say on that. If you choose not to address these
facts, don't be surprised with the large opposition. You're not
convincing by any stretch of the imagination.
