[Ifeffit] crucial information

[Bruce Ravel]

Hey,

I've now been asked several times how to pronounce the word
"Hephaestus".  Although I am fairly confident that each of the people
who asked owns a dictionary, here's some linkage to Merriam-Webster.
The page includes a .wav file of someone saying it (click on the
little red speaker icon).
