[Orcnet] That's dumb as a POST, not as a pole

Uh ... is this a joke?   The BRML mechanical interlock is a
little (expensive) piece of metal about 1 by 2 by 3 inches.
Are you in a jail cell, and are the bars spaced that close?

See the Amazon website for a picture, type "BRML", for scale
the rectangle is 1 inch by 1.5 inch.

If you still don't know what a BRML is then perhaps I should
get a refund, rather than end up with a mutilated person from
Warsaw or something.

And it is spelled INTERLOCK, by the way.
