Re: The rebirth of m"/21aw as mql21aw

Actually {m} plus stop is more like a prenasalisation of the stop than a
simultaneous bilabial stop (it's definately a simultaneous bilabial click for
clicks, though), and there are a total of 12 possible tones, not 9, so it's more
like 2x5x2x12x4x2x2 = appx 3900 syllables (I don't know how I arrived at 7200, I
must not have been paying attention).  While my brain's still working, I'd
better note that {m?} is more implosive than just {?} alone.  Very hard to feel
exactly what I'm doing, let alone describe it in text-only.
