That gives him absolute permission to behave as an asshole off the
radio. No problem.

Again with the profanities, Lennie?

Len, what's going on here?

There were no outrages when Hans just called someone an a-hole.

It's "noblesse oblige" oriented, Brian. The "upper classes" and
royalty get to swear, vomit profanities, demean and denigrate the
lower classes because they all passed 20 WPM code tests.

It's the blue blood of the ruling amateurs. If you don't admire and
love and cherish their noble accomplishments, they turn blue and
use blue language. None others may do the same to them.

Maybe not blue, it's more like they are inviolate.

Stebe gets all red in the face and insists all are green with envy
for not being able to "radiate RF at great power" somehow
allowed to him alone. He's not yellow, doesn't shirk from trying
(vainly) to defend himself when he pales on thinking he's been
insulted.

Of course, any former E-5 or higher that thinks "asshole" is a
terribly profane word must be of the sissy pink coloring.

It's a gray area...

LHA

Hope he never sees a copy of Cinderella Liberty. I think Hans starred in it.
