Be wary of absolutes, BPj. In cases of genetic isolation, there are languages
which are strong determinants of gene-pool areas. Also, as with many
Amerindian languages, the obliteration of speakers has often as well pretty
much killed off the language as well. The meme complex of language requires a
genetic base on which to survive.
Sincerely, Dan Baisden
