RE: OT RE: What stands for i in Oracle 8i

This is definitely OT, but the Egyptians used to omit vowels from words, perhaps because they thought vowels were breath.

The vowels happen to be... yi ah o ou w e h

In French, a e I o u - the order is scrambled --> I a o u e

Yahweh.

Interesting, no?

        You're sure ?

        How about 'd*mn' or 'm*cr*s*ft' ?     
        No vowels there.  :-)
        (there are other words, but they are unprintable on a nice,
friendly,
        family-orientated list like this one.)


        OK, sorry about that. Going back to work.


        Greetings,
        Frank
