In highly doped (x=0.95) material, the normal-state conductivity shows a metallic response. For intermediate dopings (x=0.85 -> 0.90) the conductivity is no longer metallic, increasing with temperature, and for low dopings (x=0.50 -> 0.80) this behavior is clearly seen to be caused by a pseudogap at approx 280 cm^{-1}, which develops well above T_c.
