Thanking both of you for the informative thread and information. Both of you are amazingly informative, and I would consider it an honor for each ping I receive from either of you.
ah shucks. But seriously — I know a little bit about the history that I know, which tends to be Indo-european/Semitic. African Christian has given me a lot of insight into the realities in Africa — AC, perhaps you could ping n-t-i and I to any of your posts?
