In only takes two fingers to send Morse Code on a keyer.


It only takes one finger to send you a message.


Seems that's the only method of "digital" communications you and
Lennie seem to know...Why am I not surprised?


A straight key requires only one finger. I thought a Mighty Macho
Morseman such as yourself would know that.


The Last Action Hero may not have figured out WHICH finger
to use. He is confronted with a choice of one out of ten.
That may present a difficulty.


He could always "Dial" for advice from interesting people in Fairfield
County..


Yup. That takes just ONE finger. :-)

Tsk, then he gets all disturbed about getting another finger
in return... :-)


Mighty Stebie doesn't NEED fingers.


Doesn't need a brain either. Just two synapses firing like the
simplest organism.


I say FOUR synapses. Extra Class paramecium level. :-)

...better than lowly bacteria.

He only has to IMAGINE
sending morse and, lo!, it happens...and he will spend a few
years bragging about his marvelous ability...as an Extra
amateur radio operator...who hasn't shown any knowledge of
maintenance or theory of operation, not even a familiarity
with simple Ohm's Law of Resistance...so then he can chide
and bully all others who don't need morsemanship about
"OPERATING (using morse code)."


He is Extra. He has reached the pinnacle of Radiodom.


Yup. The very TOP level of amateurism. As an OPERATOR
who once said he was "deserving" of that because of the
"way he could tune in a signal!" :-)

Doesn't know feces from shoe polish on what's behind the
front panels or how it works, but he can "operate" and tune
that dial!!! :-)
