Today millions, if not close to a billion, or more, children accessed
the internet. They accessed data in a range too large to describe--they
instant messaged and chatted with children on every continent of the
globe... literally without barriers...

They can't do both ?????? ie computers and radio .....


... the amount of knowledge entering young minds is staggering to the
consciousness ... and this is progress at its' finest..

Maybe but a better answer would come from someone 50 years from now ...
perspective you know .....

.. radio pales
in what it has done to offer such opportunities and advantages and feels
it has no obligations or responsibilities to move in such productive
directions--

John perhaps you could fill us in on what you have done to furthur your
concept of this service to younger people .. I hope you have had some young
ones over the house to see your station ....or given a talk to the Scouts
....or been involved with the local club for a no-code course.





or, at least the "high priests" in control at this time
do...

Warmest regards,
John


OK John you have finally convinced me ...I am going outside with the bolt
cutters and take down my antenna ...I will put all 5 rigs on E-Bay tomorrow
.... while I am at it all my radio tools and parts will go also ....same goes
with all my radio books I have collected throughout the years as they are
now obsolete .... the keys will be melted down into paperweights ..... the
3k plus that went into a new radio room will be turned into a storage area
....... all radio software will be deleted .......Now at last my mind is
free to get on the internet to read spam, delete porno and listen to your
mindless pontifications on this "new protocol".

73 oh wait no ...... see you on this group ......

KI3R oh wait ........ I need to get a new internet handle ....... and
burn my vestments .... but wait I am not in control .....
