[edit] Merge proposal

Googling "Frog Harsmar" gave 129 hits and "Frog Hasma" gave 226 hits. I've included "frog" in the search to disambig. Hasma from human names and what not. There are also more news sources for "Hasma" than "Harsma", so I think "Harsmar" should be merged into "Hasma" --Sjschen 01:45, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
