Well, you have three now: ejective, glottalic, click: E.g. p' t' k' p? t? k? @ c q (well [q] is really retroflex ...) BTW, I only know of 1 natlang that distinguishes between [k'] and [k?]. I= n Yucatec Maya there is a difference between k'=E0an 'hammock' and k?=E0an (forgot what is was, it was k- 'our' + ?=E0an '?')
