Sorry about my response time.  I've been busy with
dead people in Tennessee.  Yes.  I worked on a
language some years back that was very much an alien
language and made use of both linguolabial trills AND
a linguolabial click.  That language also
distinguished an interdental trill and click as well
as a interlabial trill (raspberry).  All intitial
conconants in that language were trills and all final
consonants were trills.  All vowels were whistles.
