["Nir cohen - Prof. Mat." <nir AT ccet.ufrn.br>]

dear isaak,

how did you know i have one?

i am not at all against ANY word association. i do it all the time. but 
it is much easier to claim various word connections than to prove that the
connection is not a mere a posteriori exercice. for example, i could claim
that words of the form XL* come from XAL=state,happen (in both hebrew and
arabic). this would include XLD and would not have any relation to being
solid. and words which contain GL come from GAL=wave,round. if so, GL$ and XLD
would have little to do with one another.
