Has it been fully "deciphered" and what is its place in the great language families. Are my romantic notions of a "mystery language" about to be shattered? And lastly, is there any shred of evidence to support a conjecture made in an SF novel I read once suggesting that Euskera and Etruscan belong to the same family?
