Actually Vicki, I meant to listen to yours again Real Soon Now.  I 
(who tend to have a pretty good ear for sounds if I can get them 
isolated) think that the other day, when I was listening to your 
tapes, I was hearing a diphthong as someone mentioned earlier.  I 
could almost imagine he was saying it as a slurred "Her-My-Owe-Nee" 
instead of "Her-MAH-Nee" - as if it was "Her Mya Nee".
