Default Heaveno

Most people consider "hello" a friendly greeting. Leonso Canales sees something a little more sinister in the
salutation.

"I see `hell' in hello. It's disguised by the `o', but once you see it, it will slap you in the face," said Canales, a 56-year-old flea market operator.

For three years Canales has led a campaign to take the "hell" out of "hello" and replace it with "heaven."

In a unanimous resolution Tuesday, Kleberg County commissioners adopted Canales' suggestion and made "heaveno" the official courthouse greeting.

Commissioners in this town 130 miles southeast of San Antonio embraced the new greeting as a "symbol of peace, friendship and welcome" in the current "age of anxiety."

"This is really great for us and I'll continue to work on this new, universal positive greeting," Canales said.
