@PaulVargas Dear Amazon blurb writer, I find your ""quoting style"" excessive. Please use half as many quotation marks. Thanks.

@Caleb Bad day, my dear brother? Well... I would do anything you asked of me if it were to make you happy.

@PaulVargas Long day, yes, but not bad. That was meant to have a more tounge-in-cheek feel than it did.

@Dɑvïd I'm curious, now, as to which aspects you doubt? I feel like I could back up every premise there with supporting evidence and the conclusion follows naturally.

That's too bad about Phjamr though, I would have loved to say hi if he came through my parts. Maybe another time?

@PaulVargas THE STORY OF MY LIFE!!! ;)

@Caleb Just for a fleeting moment I read that as "lounge-in-cheek" -- which would be most impressive!

@Susan (Or any one else interested in that "oldest alphabet" claim): see now an exchange between Rollston and Petrovich, from the latter's POV.

And this appears to be Rollston's assessment that provoked that reply.

@Dɑvïd Fascinating. Although I don't know enough to judge their arguments per se (I'll just wait to see Rollston's next come-back) Petrovich's comment that he is "100% certain" about this strikes me as rather bizarre and unacademic, and a bit off-putting.

Hello, @JackDouglas! 😃 It's been a while. It's nice to see you again! 👏

@PaulVargas See evepheso.wordpress.com/2016/11/28/… for another brief intro

@curiousdannii I saw that too but I haven't read it yet. Thanks for the reminder,

@curiousdannii Not sure I get how it's useful to think about πληθύνων πληθυνῶ as anything other than Hebrew, but it's an interesting perspective.
