Amateur radio isn't magical.

I think belief in magic IS a necessary requirement to really enjoy Amateur
Radio. Of course, you won't see a question concerning magic or metaphysics on
the test you take to obtain your license, but in your heart you will come to
believe in that powerful, intangible force.

Excellent, Hans, simply excellent!

Un-friggin-beleivable!

After spending the better part of a month dissing religion, you become
a witch.

Almost as unbelievable that you derive that we are wiccans from our
fascination in what radio does at times.

Radio isn't going to save our soul, and it isn't going to impose our
will on the world. It is just exceptionally cool, and sometimes some
interesting and strange things happen there.

Had a guy who used to work for me who thought that participating in a
discussion was to zone out for most of the time, not paying any
particular attention, then jump on how I (or others in the conversation)
pronounced a word, or some other trivial thing.
