Sorry everyone for contributing to non-genealogical discussions. I subscribe to both genealogical lists and the culture-centered one, and waited a while to comment on the language thread because I thought someone would eventually shift it to CHAHTA-L. Since it went for several days without anyone shifting over, I figured everyone was interested in the topic. If anyone wants to continue the thread, I'd be glad to participate on the other list (though I'm not sure how much more I can contribute, as I've said most of what I know on the subject). Again, my apologies to others. Chi pisa-l'achike. --Sean
