Wayne Green. Loser extrordinaire. Failed more ham radio businesses and
magazines than anyone in human history.

I don't want to pay to listen to him, unless I'm writing a book about
"good examples of a bad example".

Wayne Green loser? You can like or dislike the guy but making such
idiotic statements like that make you look like, well, an idiot. Below
are some of Mr. Green's accomplishments, loser eh? How about postings
yours Bushog? 7-11 cashier, wal-mart stocker, truck driver, am I
close? Sounds like you are a loser in life who's more than a bit
jealous than anyone who actually has a successful and fulfilling life.
Do society a favor and die asshole.
