Finnish linguistics

I did get this response from Jarvilehto,

I took a look at the Websites you indicated and I can seen many
commonalities indeed.
Thank you for your contact. I must read more about PCT!

so at the moment he's saying he did not have "intimate relations with that
theory". I believe him.

He also told me that his second name is Wilhelm and a Finnish friend tells me
that "jarvilehto" is the Finnish word for "power". Spooky or what ?

Well, my Finnish-American wife is puzzled. She asked if you would get your
Finnish friend to explain, "how does _beach-grove_ get to be _power_? Also,
what do the words, _valta_ and _voima_ mean to him?" To her j„rvi means,
_lake_, or in its older meaning, _shore_, or _beach_, and lehto means _copse_
or _grove_. BTW her mother's maiden name was J„rvi, and her aunt was married
to a man named, Lehto.

Hoping not to confuse the issue,

Best, Dick R.

Regards,
Rupert

Actually it was a joke. Or perhaps not.
