One additional problem with the Na-Dene comparison, of course, is
that the inclusion of Haida in Na-Dene is (to put it mildly) not
universally accepted by specialists. See, for instance, Robert
Levine's article in IJAL on the subject some years back -- an
article that was attacked by Greenberg in a whole chapter, in his
1987 book on classification of Native American languages. But
Levine's article is good nevertheless, and Greenberg's arguments
against Levine aren't impressive.
