Why so defensive all the time? I wasn't trying to insinuate that you were making it up or that you don't know what you are talking about. I was simply stating that I heard that it was pronounced differently and I was trying to debate to get the correct answer.

Haha, sounds like Martin has heard it spoken many different ways by his, "so I'm sticking with it" quote. But yeah, I guess we are going to go with the the ORE-ZHA pronunciation since it is now in writing. The tiki world will now always use this and if we want anyone to know what we are talking about, we will have to say it this way. Glad we have an answer for this one. Still waiting for my copy of this book, tomorrow I think. Can't wait!
