[Public-list] PHRF rating

[John Birch]

Hey Patty, yer wishing the wrong way - higher rating is better - time

Sell them all on Albergs and the point is moot - them gat bunged fin keelers 
talking their funny language and eating those strange foods ; )
Why, there oughta be a law... ; )
Cheers,
John
