The Nostratic hypothesis is generally rejected by most linguists but would be familiar to them.

If I do so, I would certainly be using your Dollarware paper (as well as you know, that whole stop signs thing) as an example of work falling under the fourth point above.

School (at least the one I’m in) sometimes seems so strictly divided internally.
