IE "Urheimat" and evidence from Uralic linguistics

[Hans Holm]

"Loans"? That appears as an extremely narrowed view.

Of cause, resemblances between two langs/Protolangs alone do not prove
borrowing, let alone any direction of of it.

Steve Long is quite right in asking "I MUST also find out someday why
Uralic would need to borrow words for water, move, bring and wash from
IE." But of cause the question is rhetorical...

Additionally to the possibility of loans it must be found out wether the
resemblances could be due to 
- only chance (about 2 to 8 %, decreasing e.g. with word-length),
- common origin.
