Now I call bullshit on that. It sounds like the Dr wants to exaggerate the importance of the find, or something. It could of course also be the BBC's reporting, which is always bad on stuff like this, and even use a photograph on top of the article that insinuates these are speakers of the language, while the photo comes appearently from the Dr himself, from a talk in 2008 (see link above).[url=http://www.nationalgeographic.com/field/explorers/david-harrison/]Dr David Harrison[/url], 'one of the expedition leaders' wrote:We didn't have to get far on our word list to realise it was extremely different in every possible way
Blah, I hate stuff like this.
