And I am sure THEY are proud of you too. I am sure you represent the
highest calibre of what the American engineering community has to offer.

Putz.

Tsk, tsk, tsk. I'm proud to be a member of the electronic engineering
community and of the Institute for Electrical and Electronic Engineers
professional organization. I became a Life Member without paying
anything extra and even gained...no more membership dues required
from Life Members!

Sunnuvagun!

But, I've never represented myself as being any "highest calibre [sic]"
and there are thousands more skilled in the profession than I. Of
course, to those who are ignorant of the most basic electrical
theories, I'm sure that a working knowledge of most radio circuits
would appear as astounding, almost science fiction. [pun not
obvious to any long-time Analog readers, heh heh]

From your standpoint as an ex-purchasing agent for a small company
who couldn't hack that for more than about a half year, I doubt you
possess enough smarts to do a reasonable evaluation of what real
engineers do, know, or act. :-)

Sunnuvagun!

Tsk, tsk. You went and used that Yiddish pejorative of "Putz,"
meaning "penis head," again.

Must be that PCTA extra Double Standard thing. Sir James of
Miccolis may or may not slap you on the wrist with a moist hankie
for that. Probably not. Sir James has not been in the best of moods
since he got his "state of the art" (with tubes) "type 7" unrewarded
with gratuitous praise, admiration, and respect for his 1990s design.
The noble laureate is concentrating on more nastygrams against
those who dare call a kluge a kluge. :-)

So, big "qualified" medical health professional, have you "dialled"
and made that "call to authorities" yet? I'm just sitting here waiting
for some other things to arrive. Good opportunity for those
"authorities" (under your mighty telephoned orders, of course) to
come and "have me committed!" :-)
