Tsk, tsk. Misogyny at work. It would seem that you are as 1920s are the

Tsk, tsk, Mark, you fail to note _sarcasm_ in the posting.

With you, who can tell? You never keep your own stories
straight, Lennie...How do you expect others to do it...?!?!

Note some of the OTHER players in this zoo...emphasis on
machismo ("be a real man and learn code"...etc.).

At elast SOME of us have SOME chance of BEING "machismo",
Lennie...Unlike yourself.

Note the long-time name FISTS as an organization of code lovers
with its close emotional attachment to machismo, strength, power
and so forth embodied by "fists."

Or "fists", and in the colloquial term for a skilled hand on a
key, Lennie....?!?!

Naaaaawh. THAT would make SENSE!

Thumbing through any collection of U.S. amateur radio magazines
that have photographs of amateurs will reveal that U.S. amateurs
are overwhelmingly male and white. For at least a half century.

Here we go again...Lennie, what's up with you and sexism and
racism? Can't find any VALID arguments so you play the "race" card?

"Machismo" is a modified latino name for extreme maleness in
the traditional male role of strength, power, fighting ability, and
(to some) leadership of the tribe.

And so far YOU are the ONLY one making an issue of it, Lennie.

Me thinks you are trying to overcompensate for some other
"deficiency" in your personal life.

I should apologize for the use of a latino label since, to us in the
U.S. sunbelt (all states along the southern border), Spanish words
and phrases are somewhat common in our version of English. I
don't believe that is true in Australia or New Zealand or even the
UK where modified English is also spoken.

What you SHOULD apologize for, Lennie, is your habitual lying,
antagonism, and cruel and selfish behaviour...

The "tribe" aspect shouldn't be overlooked since there is some
extreme polarization on the issue and the fight-to-the-death
attitude of olde-tymers demanding strict and utter adherence to
to the glorious and noble ways of Their youth. Everyone MUST
do as They did or not be considered as "real" as They are.

The "must do as we did" thing has been disproven over and over,
yet you continue to try and envoke it, Lennie.

Why? Do you ENJOY being made a fool of?

Note the comment of Brian Burke in this thread. He notes that it
seems perfectly permissible for any FISTS member to denounce
NCI at any time, yet the converse is not possible. Hypocrisy
in clear evidence, the one-sided fight-to-the-death attitude in full
fury by the code lovers.

Another misdirected twisting of the truth...but hey...What's one
more amongst the hundreds of others, eh...?!?!

I find it curiously odd that the mighty male morseman legions of
FISTS be headed by Nancy Kott, clearly a female in photographs.

Clearly a female in person, too. And you'd get a chance to KNOW
that if you were a licensed, ACTIVE Amateur Radio operator,
Lennie...Ms Kott makes it to several of teh alrger events every year.

Of course, again from my geographical vantage point in the middle
of the movie mecca, Los Angeles, here there be experts in make-
up. Who knows what ever lurks behind the "front panel?"

Or who know's what evil lurks on Lanark...?!?!

WE DO... ! ! ! !
