On behalf of the International Confederation of Guys on the R-390 List Named
Barry, 10-Q.

Barry
Major General, ICGRLNB, Kazoo Marching Band

PS, in a special plenary session at our last Global Semi-Millenial
Conference and Beer Drinking Contest, best we could determine, the plural of
"Barry" is "Barries", based on the plural of "berry".  (Sometimes,
non-Barries try to call us that, or spell it that way.) There was
considerable dissenting opinion, however the issue became blurred due to the
mass quantities of brew consumed and a "brew-haha" that ensued over a
digression into the question of what to call the original version of the
receiver prior to cost reduction.  Fortunately, we did agree not to refer to
all those with a different first name as "Non-Barry-" followed by a 12-digit
serial number.

2nd PS, Unfortunately, insufficient attendees were sufficiently conscious to
determine the winner of the beer drinking contest.  However, some progress
was accomplished:  Measurement of topsoil resistance in a one meter radius
of the contestants, while determined not to be a reliable indicator of beer
consumption over the previous 6 hrs., does show promise as a technique for
assessing the effectiveness of radio grounding systems.

Final PS -- Hope this didn't blow the complement about "good content to
share" ;-)
