[0-9bcdfghjklmnpqrstvwxz] != [^aeiouy]

Do you really want to match punctuation and whitespace,
because both of those will match [^aeiouy]?

Example:

  '<   a  href='

didn't match

  /[0-9bcdfghjklmnpqrstvwxz]{4,}[aeiouy]{1,2}[0-9bcdfghjklmnpqrstvwxz]{3,}/

but it did match

  /[^aeiouy]{4,}[aeiouy]{1,2}[^aeiouy]{3,}/
