Maybe...just maybe...FCC 06-178 can throw some water on
the dying embers of what was once US amateur radio. It could
rise like the Phoenix from the ashes. Maybe. At least it is
COLD water that might wake a few of these olde-tymers up.
Most will not, though, mumbling through toothless gums
about the Greater Glory of Morsemanship and how it once
saveed the Titanic in 1912.

You do see my vision!

Yes, the phoenix! Only this will be a much different bird, resurrected
in the image of the interent ...

You know Len, this is really pretty much old stuff. They are working on
lie detectors which actually work (can interpret human thought patterns
correctly) this is only the beginning of a device which will be
implantable and allow your/my brain to interface with the internet
directly--what then? The new "Hive-Mentality?" Sure hope these guys
don't plug-in! horrific-facial-expression!

Warmest regards,
