Most non-technical people I run into, where the topic of ham radio comes up,
end up saying one of two things. Either

1) "Oh, you're one of those guys with the unsightly cell tower in your yard"

or

2) "Yeah my neighbor had one of you guys next door, and he couldn't watch
his tv or vcr any longer cuz you you guys"

My neighbor wanted to become a ham, but I told him all the calls were
used up.
