[bars] BARS net for Feb 18, 2026

[Tim - K1DC]

Considering the context from which the question is drawn (Arthurian 
England as portrayed in "Monty Python and the Holy Grail") I believe the 
question refers to European swallows. ;-)

In the absence of popular demand, I'll be reprising my role of "fake it 
till you make it" NC tonight on the BARS weekly net.

Hope to get you in the log tonight.

73,

Tim/K1DC
