		<description>Wow. I always thought there was no rhyme or reason to the term &#039;Jesus H Christ&#039;, that it was just slang. But now I see there&#039;s a real basis to the &#039;H&#039;. Fascinating. And here I thought the &#039;H&#039; might stand for... HotForWords!  :grin: But I suppose that would be Jesus HFW Christ...  :razz: 

I am reminded of a concept I recently learned of, one I still haven&#039;t quite grasped. It has to do with biblical translation of the Book of Genesis. Apparently, the first line of Genesis (in the original Hebrew) started with the letter beta (or, more precise, the Hebrew letter equivolent to beta), and there is some question why the first line wouldn&#039;t more accurately be started with the letter alpha (or, more precise, the Hebrew letter &#039;aleph&#039;). It is said that if that first line were to start with the aleph instead of the beta, it would have a whole other meaning to it, albeit similar to &quot;In the beginning...&quot;. Anybody else heard this one before? I doubt it, as it is a relatively obscure concept, but it would sure be interesting if somebody more knowledgable in this field could explain this concept a lot better than I have.

Thanks for another informative lesson, Marina. And I got a good laugh out of that HUGE car you were in. They don&#039;t make boats like that anymore! Peace and love, Errin : )</description>
