I won't enter politics as long as you don't enter spelling bees <:O
By the way, would all Americans please stop being so Republican-loving,
born-again pseudo-Christians and smoke more pot like us Canadians. Maybe
it would finally lower your per-capita murder rates. Thanx a bunch ;P

And considering that Hittite possessive suffixes are unrelatable to
the rest of IE and since they can be explained without theorizing any
in IE itself, your pointless point is pointlessly pointless in a
pointless manner of speaking. As I said earlier, the fact that the
non-indicative lacks any locative marker of any kind and the fact
that there is nothing less verbal about the n-ind. than the ind. means
that you're, as is your wonderfully offbeat character, the product
of out-of-control imagination. There is no factual base to begin with
to justify your ideas no matter how interesting they are. I just don't
see it.
