[SOC] Evolving language

[Bill Cunningham]

Given the length of G5RV thread, it seems that the term "G5RV" has replaced
"807" as synonimous with "beer."  Those of us old enough to remember 807
transmitters and 807 six-packs will have to adapt.  Perhaps a compromise for
clarity.  Clarity of beer is important.

G5RV clearly refers to draught beer, most particularly a warm English beer
still sold by the pint in pubs in a metrified nation.  807, on the other
hand, clearly refers to the glass bottle, most particularly American and
export beers served ice cold.  This leaves us with no adequate term for
canned beer, a challenge left to the student thereof.
