Translation:
     I won't comment on grammar, lest the BG become angry, but I can
help about the betleH.  I have seen them on "Star Trek" many times and
always watched carefully.  They appear to be about four feet long.  My
betleH, which I bought, is about that size.  When your husband makes
the grip, tell him to be careful of the balance, because they can
easily become very heavy towards the front, and hard to control.  When
you have your weapon, you should get the book on betleH techniques
by HetaQ (check the website merchandise page).  It is very helpful.
Success to you!
