Hello? This newsgroup is about AMATEUR RADIO POLICY.
Military
and international socio-political politics are another
group.

Then why do you go off on so many tangents, Len? You seem to
be afraid
to have a civil discussion about amateur radio policy here.

In order to have a "civil discussion" on Amateur Radio
policy,
Lennie would have to have some sort of experience from which
to make informed opinions or suggestions from.

Whether the discussion is "informed" or not isn't the issue,
Steve. My point was about Len's ability to have *civil*
(as in well-mannered) discussion with those who disagree
with him.

Point taken. You're quite right.

I've tried many times, but Len insists on responding to
my disagreement with direct insults, even though I didn't
insult him. Apparently he sees my disagreement as an insult.

Obviously.

Of course his insistance on using diminutives when you clearly
address him with at least the accepted social civility demonstrates
what we've been saying all along.

No one doubts his "inside the black box" knowledge,

I do, Steve. Len talks a lot of nomenclature and buzzwords
but when it comes to actually solving practical radio problems
we don't see anything. His articles for ham radio (22 years ago)
were all basic theory, not practical projects.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm....Good point. And when I think back on
it, Lennie fought tooth-and-nail to get involved in a meaningful
discussion on microwave technology.

Part of my persistence in trying to get him to do so, of course,
was directly tied to his suggestion that he and his "engineering
bretheren" had so much to offer Amateur Radio.

Of couse ALL he has offered Amateur Radio are arguments, name
calling and the aforementioned articles in said defunct magazine.

Not THOSE I doubt were his...

however he
knows almost "diddly squat" about Amatuer Radio practice or
policy.

Not the point.

It is when he's humiliating himself by making assinine assertions
that are obviously not rooted in fact.

His rants on "Morse Code TESTING" are emotionally based and
bear no relevence to current Amateur employment of the mode.

Obviously.

Ayup.
