So, Lennie...Those thousands of persons who have membership in the
various branch progrmas are NOT an ASSET to those programs...?!?!

WHAT AN IDIOT ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

You wrote "amatuer" twice instead of the proper word "amateur."

Neither MARS nor the FCC has used "amatuers."

You have a near-constant tendency to misspell "amateur" in the
haste you seem to have (or possibly outrage, anger) to attempt
"cutting me off at the knees."

I see.

It's about time... :-)

You make idiotic replies based solely upon a typo.

I just reply to your idiocy of claiming "MARS is amateur radio."

MARS is military, by directive, by definition.

Which makes you even MORE idiotic, considering your alleged education.

No. The only thing that could be considered "idiotic" is the vain
hope that you could understand government directives and
regulations.

You do not.

VOLUNTEERS for MARS operations come from "licensed amateurs."

So other than your attempt to "undermine" my points based upon a
transposed letter, we can again assume that you agree with me that MARS
depends upon these licensed Amateurs to run the program.

No, "we" cannot. MARS has worked okay by itself, such as in
the four-week exercise Grecian Firebolt 2002.

You have constantly stated an obvious error that "MARS is amateur
radio." It is not. MARS is military.

If you wish to imagine that your volunteerism with any MARS
makes you a part of the military service, that is just your
imagination working too hard.

If YOU wish to try and suppose that, then you are welcome to.

You have constantly stated that "MARS is amateur radio."

It is not. MARS is militrary.

Everyone can come to the conclusion that you wish to associate
yourself with the military even though you your military service
was terminated. One way to do that is make the false, misleading
statement that "MARS is amateur radio."

It seems to me that you have an unwavering hatred of anyone who's done
anything you HAVEN'T done, or HAS done, only better.

Tsk, tsk, tsk. Correcting a false statement (such as your "MARS
is amateur radio") is nothing involving hatred.

Your stubborn and ill-tempered attempt to convince all that you
are "correct" makes you want to misdirect the "argument" into
personal attacks on others or that others are "incorrect."

MARS is military. By directive, by regulation.

You said that N/MC MARS regualtions didn't specify a need for licensure
in the Amateur Radio Service to be a member. You said you could do it. I
was waiting to see if you could/would, if only to prove you could.

Anyone can look at USN-USMC Communications Instruction
NTP 8(C) and see that for themselves.

No one has to "join" a USN MARS group (by volunteering) in order
to read that.

You didn't, obviously, which is exactly what I would expect of you.

Incorrect. I found the appropriate USN-USMC regulation, named it,
gave a website for others to get it and read it.

Nothing has changed in the interim.

A lot of blustery brogadaccio with no net effect.

Nothing of the kind. I presented information.

That information, indeed all sources of MARS information, makes
your statement "MARS is amateur radio" false.

You need to admit your statement was false and carry on.

Refusal to deny your falsity fools no one...except yourself.

Please, Lennie...show us what PRACTICAL EXPERIENCE you have in ANY MARS
program....Of course you can always regale us with your exploits of 63 years
ago...

"Regale exploits of 63 years ago?!?" :-)

63 years ago would make it the year 1941. I was 8 years
old then.

You didn't exist in 1941. Your parents were never able
to bear children in 1941.

Oh? You know my parents? You know when they married? You know that I
am the youngest/oldest of the family?

Tsk, tsk, tsk. Another case of refusing to admit you made another
wrong statement or error in typing. :-)

A marriage ceremony and legal papers thereto is not a requirement
to have a child. [nature and biology have their own rules...]

Are you now saying you are illegitimate? :-)

Forgive my math error. I forgive you many of yours. None the less, it
remains that the ONLY "military" communications experience you have was over
half a century ago. NONE of it in any MARS program.

Incorrect. One of the 43 transmitters at U.S. Army radio station ADA
was allowed second priority in use for the U.S. Army MARS group
attached to Headquarters, United States Forces, Far East in 1953
to 1955. That MARS group (approximately four service personnel)
obtained their own HF radio station moved to Hardy Barracks in
1955 after ADA transmitters had moved from Tsukishima to Kashiwa.
They had a nice multiband beam, rotatable, on a tower at Hardy in
1955.

Speaking of which, when are we gonna get the scopp on YOUR child rearing
experiences? Still waiting on the source of your background for the
assertion that Amateur licenses should be age-limitied

Tsk, tsk, tsk. [the word should be "scoop" not 'scopp.' :-) ]

Misdirection. The six-year-old ranting about my Comment on
Docket 98-143 is not a part of this subject thread and has nothing
to do with MARS. That other thread was ranted by long-timers
two years after my Comment had been made public. Sore heads.
Can't let dead horses be, have to beat them incessantly. :-)

"Necro-equine flaggelation." :-)

Temper fry...
