Hmm, at sixteen (two years ago!! I'm getting old!)... sex: check, drugs:
only if nicotine and alcohol count, religion: check, socialism: check,
drinking too much: check, vomiting in the street: check.

Speaking of interesting textbooks, Campbell's "Historical Linguistics- An
Introduction" (Edinborough Univarsity Press, 1998) is a good book, although
he does emphasise the Mayan languages a bit.

Dan, who has stopped vomiting in the street.
