Not a matter of guts, Len. I stay out of it because its all old and

least you all are accomplishing something, eh? 8^)

No, Mike. You've gone over to the dark side of the force. You've kept
silent
on the insulting behavior of these U.S. radio amateur "extras" and then
tried to encourage turning this newsgroup into a private little Chat Room.

Ahhhhhhhhh....so unless Mike takes a side, he's somehow
"approving" of one side's argument or the other...depending on who
makes the claim first.

Personally, I think he's a very sober realist who is able to see
both sides of the exchange w/o getting incolved in all the muck.

If you need private little Chat Rooms so bad, contact your ISP. They
can arrange for you and cronies to have one for your very own. Really!

I do keep reading them for your header quips though! 8^)

I don't make "header quips." The headers I cannot change; AOL does
not allow such hacking.

Folks in here don't even understand Taglines...a formerly venerable
custom of funny nonsense phrases and sentences that have nothing
(usually) to do with the message body.

This is a humorless place. What passes for humor among the PCTA
is a lot of hollow personal insults and self-righteous giggling and
harassment of those trying to argue SUBJECTS, not people.

Ans what passes for "humor" from the non-licensed,
non-participatory sidelines is antagonism, hatred, verbal filth,
mistruths and outright lies.

And you wonder why so many are "anti" you, Lennie.

You just refuse to accept that you're a fould mouthed bigot that
manages to tick off everyone you talk to.

It's not about differing opinions. It's about YOU being a putz.
No one likes being treated rudely and you are the epitome of rude.

Does that Nobel-equivalent amateur radio license test passing give
you "credentials" or "licensure" to be a political guru? I think not.

I'm a citizen, and I vote. That's good enough for me.

Of which country? As an American I used to think other Americans
would respect free speech. NOT in amateur radio of the USA.

We respect free speech, Lennie.

We DON'T "respect" people who use it as a crutch to be mean and
crude.

Witness:

Check out Kernel Klink's comments:

Being smartmouthed is supposed to earn you respect?

Anyone who is "interested" in
radio MUST get a ham license! Like an entire engineering career IN
radio-electronics is "NOT" showing an interest?!?!?

Just like Janet Jackson said..."What have you done for me
lately?"

Your "interest" in Amateur Radio is being antgonistic and foul.

It has nothing to do with furthering ANY aspect of the radio
service, technical, operational or educationally.

Ergo..."NO INTEREST".

Some poor, disadvantaged, non-electronics employed emotional
basket cases in here are jealous that I began in radio at the TOP of
HF communications.

A rear area Army radio station clerk was "the TOP"...?!?!

BBBWWWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA ! !
! !

You were nothing more than a "radio mechanic", Lennie!

Poor babies. Nearly all of them didn't even
exist when I started.

And as of today you STILL haven't started in Amateur Radio, and
many of us have already been at THAT for over 30 years.

They've got the brainwashing to insist that
morse code is still used in communications (it isn't outside of ham
radio) or that MARS IS amateur radio! [among several myths]

It doesn't matter WHERE Morse Code is used OUTSIDE of Amateur
Radio.

Read this veeeeeeeeeeeeery s l o w l y, Lennie...

This forum is about A M A T E U R R A D I O.

Not 1950's era Army...Not PLMRS...Not NASA or anyone else. Not
maritime nor commercial broadcasting...Not CB...A M A T E U R R A D
I O....

WE know Morse Code is not used except in very rare instances
outside of the Amateur service. That's because the Amateur service
has completly different goals and applications.

Those emotional basket cases, self-righteous to a fault, are trying
their best (which is also their worst) at insulting anyone who isn't
PCTA. They can't handle controversy, can't handle anything which
hasn't been spelled out for them by the ARRL. Tsk, tsk.

There's no controversy here, Lennie.

Morse Code continues to have valid aplications in the Amateur
Radio service.

I'm putting you down on the PCTA self-righteousness group...on
the basis of your subject postings. Have fun!

You're only doing that since Mike's treated you kindly and with
respect, and you just can't stand it.

I, on the otherhand, realize what a dedicated scumbag you are,
and treat you as such. You've gone out of yuor way to earn it...you
deserve it...enjoy it...

Putz.
