Yeah, I must say so myself. Awe inspiring
how my systematic method of retrieving
information on the human past by pondering
the verbal morphospace for permutation groups
bears fruit and carries me on and on, effortlessly
and against the collective hostility in sci.lang.

Your method of snipping my arguments and then
replying to the snipped argument is fun. I will now
used it on you. And, by the way, you wrote two long
replies without anything on the etymology of bear,
and here again, no word on the etymology of bear.
We are here in a linguistic forum. But why should
a Harlan Messigner care? You are Mr. Common
Sense in person. You don't have to bring by
linguistic arguments. Nor has the mob of sci.lang.
They can't disprove my etymology of bear, nor
can they defend the PIE etymology, but you can
always make fun of me. That's how good you are.
Does it make you proud?
