Sorry but,I got a laugh out of the comments that were 
clearly tongue in cheek.

This is also a fun list where goofing is part of our "way".

So, you lighten up.

    Through some convoluted thought process (I have a lot of 
them) it occurs to me to ask about the machines used by RCA 
Communications. RCA used a seven-unit ARQ code called the 
Moore code (after John B Moore).  Does anyone know if the 
received code was used directly by the machines or if it was 
translated to 5-unit Beaudot code?  Did RCA use standard 
teleprinters or make (or have made) their own?
