Has anyone ever heard of these?  Out of curiosity, I came across this one 
day.  Anyone ever heard of this guy, Gertoux?

"The word Yahowah has never been used in any Bibles. The (fanciful) 
grammatical pattern which involves a change a to e has never existed. In 
actual fact, before 1100 CE , the Tetragram has been pointed with only the 
two vowels e, a of the Aramaic word Shema which means "The Name".The vowel o 
appeared, after 1100 CE , owing to the influence of the reading of the word 
Adonay."

Dear Members,

If any of you would like to change your current B-Hebrew settings or =
even (dare I say it) unsubscribe from B-Hebrew, then there is a very =
simple process involved:

At the very bottom of each post you receive from B-Hebrew is a link to =
the B-Hebrew mailing list page (see the bottom of this email for an =
example). Simply click on this link and you will be taken to this page. =
>From there, all you need do is enter your email address and click the =
"Unsubscribe or edit options" button. You will then be taken to a page =
with your settings, from which you can affect any of your desired =
changes.

If for some reason this fails, then please contact the B-Hebrew staff =
and let us know. However, please try making the changes yourself first, =
as each of us on staff are extremely busy and do not want to do what you =
yourself could do.


Best Regards,

GEORGE ATHAS
Fellow Chairman, B-Hebrew Forum
