        Great summary of recent advances and the present state of linguistics hypotheses and research, and very nice depiction of the phylogenetic tree of Indo-European language.

        I'm no scientist, but I was fascinated by the idea of "hobbits" really existing (I guess partly from an interest in fantasy fiction like Lord of the Rings). This paper was big news too - it was all anyone was talking about for ages!
