Re: Your definition of a tree hugger No can't say I have any experience with Sanskrit....when I spent some (too little) time in Africa in the mid 80's I got quite obsessed with the language of the bushmen, and its use of many different kinds of clicks produced with the tongue as you make the sound of a letter/word or part thereof. Really quite mesmerising. The closest language in common use is possibly Xhosa, one of the Bantu languages of Southern Africa..but I'm probably displaying some gross simplification by saying that...apologies to all Xhosa speakers who know better than I!! (ndiyathetha isiXhosa esincinci!)
