John,

My "point" is this....ever since the creation of "incentive licensing".
Forcing one to upgrade. I have found a serious degradation of attitudes in
ham radio.

I have seen the class of license being used to determine ones "pecking
order" in the society of Amateur Radio. Thus forcing upon us a system of
"class structure". A structure of unwarranted superiority because of ones
license class. I stated it back in 1965 when I first heard of this stupid
idea. And I state it today.
