Default What is the ARRL's thought on having good amateurs?

Then the presentation of sound reasoning has been successful.

No most of them have left due to the spam created by Mark Morgan,

I see Mark Morgan as the necessary balance in the vicious postings
by
Robesin.

He doesn't need to create dozens of posts to refute each one.

You don't get to decide that. Has Robesin accused you of lesbian
encounters or pedophilia?

When he does, I'll be sure to keep track of the ratio of Robesin
postings to Dee postings.


Well if such an odd thing should ever happen, I'll killfile him. I
refuse
to get sucked into such stupidity.


And one day when your job depends on a security background
investigation and accusations of homosexuality, pedophilia, and rape...



Whether or not I were to respond to such accusations would make no
difference as the postings would still be in the archive. If it did cause a
problem in that area, I'd certainly take legal action against the poster and
the company who accepted such unfounded accusations.

Stupid? It was sexual harassment. That's illegal isn't it?


Hard to say. One would have to weigh it against the specific wording of
the
law and adjudicated cases to determine if it was or was not illegal.


Good side-step.


No not a side step. I'm not a lawyer, judge, legal expert, or a juror
weighing evidence in such a case. So I don't have sufficient data to make
such a judgement.

Are Bruce and Dan in your killfile? Are "thier" anonymous characters
in your killfile?


They've been gone so long, I don't know. I clean out the file and start it
over about once or twice a year.

Dee from Deetroit? I like Michigan but Detroit isn't my favorite
place.


Actually I live in one of the suburbs not Detroit itself. However, there
are some good things in Detroit. They have a full slate of pro sports teams
and an absolutely wonderful opera company.

I think amateur radio is one of the best hobbies ever, and it can also
serve in an emergency communications roll.


On that we agree. So on that upbeat note, let's conclude this extensive
discussion (it was fun but we've kind of beaten it to death) and go work
some radio.
