I can see it now: �There'll be a massive, multi-cultural EU-Ham

Where have you been?

Europe, Africa and right here.

On some secret State Department
"assignment?"

None of my assignments were secret, Leonard. They made "State" magazine
and all of the amateur radio mags.

Don't you know where the International
Amateur Radio Union has had its website? Don't you know
that anyone can download IARU documents for free?

Okay, I want to join the IARU. Now where can I buy the latest IARU
antenna handbook and the big IARU operating manual.

Leonard, old boy, I'll venture a guess that I have much more knowledge
of the IARU and have had much more direct contact with the IARU than you.

Don't you know that the IARU is an international union,
not just of European countries?

I wrote about a pan-EU (not European) organization. Don't you get
anything right?

Why are you so ignorant?

I've read your post. I've thus looked at the very source of ignorance.

Have you been working Frenchmen out of band lately?

Have you worked anyone on any amateur band lately?
