An unscientific Google search turns up not one instance of the name Heserman or Eserman, but page after page of Hesteranns (seemingly most often from the 1800s) and a bunch of Esteranns, and the Genferret is a timid, cowering creature who seeks safety in numbers. "Heserman" sounds biblical, but the Genferret can find no instance of this word in the King James Bible. The Genferret respectfully suggests that you return to the place you acquired these new cousins and exchange them. __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
