Project WC8 (still needs a name) has a single alveolar click, and an
alveolar velaric egressive, which is nick-named "the anti-click" in my
notes. It has a click-like sound, and is produced by the same mouth-shape,
but with the release of positive pressure instead of an implosion. I might
very well sound like a simultaneous /k/ and /t/.
