1- Prof Agus's theory isn't scientific, as it's not falsifiable. It
might be true, but a theory in which data that conforms is considered
confirmation and data that defies is considered acceptable rarity simply
can't be disproven by experiment.

2- Yequm Purqan sounds like Babylonian Aramaic to my untrained ear. It
has all those words with trailing vowels one finds in the language of
people called "rabi" as opposed to that of "rav".

Tir'u baTov!
