Um, no, just didn't remember the "Query:" business.
I go all the way back to the Perry Mason series. And I recall Ironside,
too.
Not only that, when I moved into a student co-op house as an undergrad, I
had to select a "buzz" (a Morse-code-like signal to be used to summon me
for phone calls). Since I arrived in mid-term, all of the good ones were
taken. So I borrowed one from the first few notes of the "Perry Mason"
theme: .--.. (short-LONG-LONG-short-short). I kept that code throughout
my career in various student co-op houses.
