Haha, yes. For years, Nypro has bought this one brand of 'cable ties' called "Bar-Loks". Due to this, Gael Force has also always used this brand, and past/present members of the team lovingly refer to the products by their brand name. This is much like someone calling a tissue a "Kleenex" or an adhesive bandage a "band-aid".
So, if you know myself, Andy Grady, Colleen Shaver, or any other Gael Force members/alumni, you know that we call them by the name Bar-Lok, and that this usage of the name is typically followed by jesting and teasing from our friends on non-bar-lok-using-teams.
