If you don't back that up with the premises, I'll ignore it.
I can't read everything.

You should know !
You mentioned the word !

Yawn.

Try Japanese YoNe Method instead of yawn.
Every time you have a good idea, you stand up and you shout YoNe.
It might help.

And how is that relevant?

The only place we have something like that is Kalundborg fjord,
between Røsnæs(Refsnæs) and Asnæs, but we don't have a name for it
that I know of. I'm collecting stuff to that Kal-/Hal- name (cf.
Hilleviones), it seems to have old connections.

I'll wait until you have more to say.

Or FU loses *n,W- from U roots.

Because N either because n with front vowels or w with back vowels.
