[R-390] First post to the list.

[Barry Williams]

I'm thankful for solid state as I would look funny with a hollow state 
pacemaker. I would glow in the dark too.

My leads go in around the collar bone, so I'm limited what I can lift 
with my left arm. I've already received half a dozen full charges due to 
faulty leads, and I'm not about to pinch them now.
